In the ODMS, a group of data files can also be related by the mission or the fieldwork during which it was collected. This method of cataloging information is very useful as it permits the retrieval of all data collected during a mission without needing any other references. This page shows a table holding information concerning all the missions catalogued in the system.

To select a mission, scroll through the table until you find one of interest and then click on the line. To select several missions, hold down the Ctrl (several single selections) or Shift (several contiguous selections) key as you click the left mouse button. To cancel a selection, simultaneously hold down the Ctrl key and click on the selection with the left mouse button.

Attention: When selecting data for a particular mission, you should not use spatial or temporal references as it may keep you from retrieving all the data you are looking for.
