Background

The ESIP Federation, in cooperation with NOAA, seeks to share the community's knowledge with scientists who increasingly need to be better data managers. Over the next several years, the ESIP Federation expects to evolve training courses which seeks to improve the understanding of scientific data management among scientists and emerging scientists. Initially, a 1.5 hour workshop is to be held at the 2010 Fall meeting of the American Geophysical Union (AGU). The workshop may form the basis for an online course. Short courses, certificate programs, and university courses may be developed in the future. The AGU workshop is scheduled for Tuesday Dec. 14 from 1200h-1330h in Moscone South Rooms 228-230.

AGU Workshop Description

Writing Your Data Management Plan

Whether you need to include a data management plan in your NSF proposal, want to make data exchange in your field as transparent as possible, or just aim to maximize the visibility of your science in the Internet World, this workshop is for you. Earth scientists face increasing pressure to share their results not just in journals, but in many other settings. Data produced sometimes long ago for one purpose are now being successfully applied to emerging problems in entirely different disciplines. A concrete data management plan developed early in your research project can make you and your data more visible, more successful, and increase the impact of your science.

In this Earth Science Information Partners-sponsored workshop (ESIP), representatives from NOAA, NASA, and other data archive centers will provide an overview into the world of successful data stewardship, examine emerging standards and trends, and provide concrete steps for managing your Earth Science data. We will present our roadmap to completion of the recently distributed NSF data management requirement. We will conclude with a question and answer session. Workshop duration is 1.5 hours.
