Overview
The ESIP Federation has the following common strategic goals [ESIP Federation Strategic Plan (2009-2013), January 30, 2009]:
- Increase the use and value of Earth science data and information.
- Act as a facilitating, coordinating and advisory community-led organization to promote the use of Earth science data and information products for the members and the communities they support.
- Continue to evolve the ESIP Federation (e.g., governance, structure, staffing) to strengthen the ties between Observations, Research and Applications.
- Promote techniques to articulate and measure the socioeconomic value and benefit of Earth science data, information and applications.
A sub-goal of Goal 1 above is to "Reduce barriers between data providers and data users through IT, training, and standards education." A sub-goal of Goal 2 above is to "Promote use of technical standards and best practices for data management, stewardship and application development." This activity is organized to articulate data stewardship principles and recommend practices to support these two sub-goals of the ESIP Federation.
