Open Marine Archive (OMA)

The objective of this IMIS-database is to provide information on all topics relevant to marine sciences - be it people with their expertise, institutions and their mandate, publications,... Different types of 'knowledge items' correspond to different modules in the system, each with their own entry into the database (see below, or in the menu on the left, for a list of these).

Information relevant to marine sciences in the Flanders, or to the southern part of the North Sea, is actively pursued. We hope to achieve a reasonably comprehensive coverage here, of course counting on feedback from our users, drawing our attention to possible errors/omissions. Information from further afield is also stored, and users are welcome to comment, but the VMDC will not actively go and look for this information.
