After a brief introduction to the nature of teclmical databases, the following five database design characteristics are discussed: data verification procedures, structure and presentation of data, data output and choice of software and hardware. The first two areas, types of data and data verification procedule are of more importance for scientific databases than or non-technical databases. In this paper, three corrosion databases are discussed in terms of how they address the five design characteristics, whether they include decision tools, and what sophistication level they require from the users. It is noted that, of the five characteristics, only the last one (choice of software and hardware) is subject to occasional drastic changes: the other characteristics, grounded in the user’s needs, will evolve with the database. As long as the first four characteristics continue to satisfy the user’s needs, the database will be worth porting periodically to new improved platforms that provide enhanced features. Keywords: corrosion, databases, data quality, decision tools
