Session Description:
The ability to analyze and derive scientific inferences through vast collections of multi-sensor measurements can be daunting, given multiple archives, varied and complex data formats, inconsistent nomenclature, and sheer archive volume. Recent advancements in Cloud Computing, High Performance Computing, and affordable teraflop-scale GPU technology, along with machine learning and the ability to collocate data analysis capabilities next to the sensor in the age of the Internet of Things, it is now possible for researchers and decision makers to access, analyze, and derive inferences across collections of multivariate measurements. The necessary technology exists to enable research to discover and conduct in-depth investigations into interactivity between energy and water, climatological events resulting in drought, sea level rise, and extreme weather phenomena and their relationship with population growth and human activities, etc. This session welcomes contributions in applied information and data science methods and technologies to facilitate scientific research, discovery, and decision support.
