In this short paper we present the initial steps in the creation of a oceanographic linked dataset using information from the oceanographic campaigns of Pampa Azul Initiative. To achieve consistency, discoverability and make the datasets readable by machines and humans, we use different controlled vocabularies among them NERC Vocabulary Server together with the geospatial standardfor the semantic web GeoSPARQL and the reuse of the ontological designpattern (ODP) for oceanographic cruises. In addition we complement the Pampa Azul information with the oceanographic linked dataset Rolling Deck to Repository (R2R9).
