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:
Things our collaboration area needs to deliver our objectives?
(e.g. Partnerships, in-kind support, staff support)
How will we know we are on the right track?
How will others know what we are doing in & out of ESIP?
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?)</nowiki>
