Ocean Networks Canada (ONC) is a world-leading ocean observing facility hosted by the University of Victoria, delivering ocean data from cabled, mobile, and community-based observing networks on the Pacific, Atlantic, and Arctic coasts of Canada, and in the Southern Ocean. Ocean data are archived, processed, and made freely available via ONC's data management system, Oceans 3.0.
