1. DSDP/ODP and IODP data general information:
Deep-sea drilling project databases evolved from
• DSDP – Deep Sea Drilling Project (1968 - 1983)
• ODP – Ocean Drilling Program (1983 - 2003)
• IODP – Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (2003 - 2013)
• IODP – International Ocean Discovery Program (2013 - 2024)
• IODP3 – International Ocean Drilling Program (since 2025)
Legacy databases from DSDP/ODP still online (JANUS)
2. Three separate platform provider:
• JOIDES Resolution Science Operator (JRSO)/U.S. Implementing Organization (USIO) operates expeditions with the JOIDES Resolution.
• Center for Deep Earth Exploration (CDEX) operates expeditions with the Deep Sea Drilling Vessel Chikyu.
• ECORD Science Operator (ESO) operates expeditions using Mission-Specific Platforms.
Each platform provider uses its own drilling platform & internal data management system!
