Abstract:Midwest FreightView (MWFV) and its associated data repository is part of a large multifaceted
effort to promote regional economic development throughout the Great Lakes
system. The main objective for the system is to promote sustainable maritime
transportation in the region by serving as an information clearinghouse for public policy
decision making and for drawing the link between maritime freight movements and
economic impacts throughout the region. In effort to maintain consistency over time
within the MWFV system this project was devoted to the development of a set of
formalized data library functions that include a complete set of user guides, technical
manuals, and training modules for using the system, a detailed inventory of data
repository contents, and complete documentation of repository contents according to
national metadata standards. In addition, the project established a formally-defined
directory structure for data storage, backup and security protocols, and the development
of formal procedures for any updates, additions, or edits to the repository contents.
