IN23B:
Facilitating Open Science and Data through Scientist Engagement and Evolving Technology Posters


Session ID#: 8917

Session Description:
Complex scientific research questions that address modern societal challenges, particularly those related to Earth systems, require a data-enabled interdisciplinary strategy. Community-driven cyberinfrastructure efforts and architecture are being developed to support scientists at all stages of the research endeavor. An example is the NSF-supported EarthCube program, which seeks to provide better solutions and tools that transform the conduct of data-enabled geosciences research. Such efforts will facilitate global data discovery and knowledge management, and will help support interoperability and data integration across disciplines. Science community involvement is critical to the successful development, dissemination, and implementation of new technological approaches for geoscience research. This session invites papers that demonstrate how specific geoscience topics can be improved through advances in integrating technology and data management. Examples will showcase the successes of the open science vision and will highlight how geoscience research can radically change as a result.
