Janus Web Database

ODP and IODP data are stored in the same database, so most database links will take you to the IODP/TAMU web site. For questions about the online database contact the Data Librarian.

Janus Web provides access to ODP's Oracle relational database Janus. The database contains 450 tables of ODP's marine geoscience data that are collected onboard the drillship JOIDES Resolution. The database includes paleontological, lithostratigraphic, chemical, physical, sedimentological, and geophysical data for ocean sediments and hard rocks.

Janus has been used to collect data since Leg 171A (January 1997), and data collected prior to Leg 171A are being added to Janus as time permits (see Database Overview for available data). Data are available to everyone. There are two main ways to access the database: database overview and data queries.
