Session Description:
In recent years, the quality of Earth science data has received much attention from several points of view. First, the scientific quality, defined in terms of accuracy, precision, uncertainty, validity and suitability for use is considered paramount. Product quality addresses how well the scientific quality is assessed and documented. Stewardship quality addresses how well data are being preserved and how easily users can access and use data. Service quality addresses how well data are provided to users and if users are fully engaged. This session seeks papers covering each of the above aspects of the quality of information showing how they benefit the user community or lead to extended use of the data and metadata via standard practices and service that can be leveraged across multiple domains of Earth science. Identification of data quality management challenges, opportunities and innovative solutions intended for operational use and community re-use are highly encouraged.
