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.
