ESIP ESDA Collaboration Area Strategic Plan 2016
- Co-Chair (s): Steve Kempler, Tiffany Mathews
- Website (wiki): http://wiki.esipfed.org/index.php/Earth_Science_Data_Analytics
- Monthly Meeting Day/Time: 3rd Thursday, 3:00 Eastern Time
ESIP Vision
To be a leader in promoting the development, implementation, and deployment of Earth science data analytics tools/techniques that facilitate gleaning knowledge from Earth science data and information.
2015-2020 Strategic Plan Goals
- Educate ESIP members on the significance and future development growth of Data Analytics
- Compile and categorize existing ESDA tools/techniques according to ESDA defined types and goals
- Provide a comprehensive gap analysis between ESDA needs and available tools/techniques
- Create a path for Information technologists to develop needed, but unavailable, ESDA tools/techniques that increase the use and value of Earth science data and information
- Seek graduate data analytics/ Data Science student internship opportunities

2015-2020 Strategic Plan Executive Summary
Strategic Plan Roadmap
Collaboration Area Plan
Collaboration Area Objective:
- Provide a forum for ‘Academic’ discussions that allow ESIP members to be better educated and on the same page in understanding the various aspects of Data Analytics
- Bring in guest speakers to describe overviews of external efforts and further teach us about the broader use of Data Analytics.
- Perform activities that:
-- Compile use cases generated from specific community needs to cross analyze heterogeneous data (could be ESIP members or external)
-- Compile experience sources on the use of analytics tools, in particular, to satisfy the needs of the above data users (also, could be ESIP members or external)
-- Examine gaps between needs and expertise
-- Document the specific data analytics expertise needed in above collaborations
- Seek graduate data analytics/ Data Science student internship opportunities
Things we may do to fulfill our objectives:
- Continue to provide an 'academic' atmosphere for ESIP members to learn about ESDA, in particular, at ESIP meeting cluster sessions
- Continue to engage guest speakers with expertise that can provide the ESIP community with a better understanding of: Data/information analytics needs, ESDA methodologies currently being utilized, and careers in data analytics
- Collaborate with, or otherwise be cognizant of, other information science activities and organizations, addressing the same issues as we are regarding the understanding and development of ESDA
- Brainstorm other activities that can more effectively trigger the development and usability of ESDA tools and techniques
- Collaborate with ESDA educators in supporting the development of curriculums that teach data analytics pertaining to Earth science
Things our collaboration area needs to deliver our objectives?
(e.g. Partnerships, in-kind support, staff support)
- Data and Information users who can describe how they use large heterogeneous data in their research, applications, etc.
How will we know we are on the right track?
- If we can determine and document a gap analysis (described above), we are on the right track
- If we can articulate requirements for tools/techniques, that currently do not exist, and that satisfy a group of users, then we are really on the right track (First time, any decent number of users would be good)
- If ESIP partners, singly or in collaboration, can implement and deploy tools that satisfy user requirements, then we have reached nirvana
How will others know what we are doing in & out of ESIP?
- ESIP Federation could publicly endorse the work
- Publish
Cross-collaboration area connections
(Identify other areas that you consider cross collaboration. Are there things that you need us to provide in support the cross collaboration?)
- MatchTool, Interoperability and Technology, maybe Discovery</nowiki>
