In 1987 the CEADO received its accreditation to operate as Responsible National Oceanographic Data Centre for the Southern Oceans (RNODC/SOC) within the IODE System having to collaborate as its principal aim with both A and B World Data Centres in all matters related to physical and chemical oceanographic data obtained by the countries within the area south to parallel 50x South Latitude.
