You can all be ESIP Ambassadors at the summer meeting!
The Earth Science Pre-Print effort is moving ahead with a special call this thursday to talk to representatives from other organizations. Tom Narock is leading this effort for ESIP.
Preview the Summer Meeting Program HERE.
The academy commons patterns charrette is looking for input: do you have a solution or have you experienced a failure in how the academy works (e.g., tenure is broken, peer review is broken, publishing is broken… but exactly HOW); add your insights, imagination, and experience to this new effort to go beyond “open” for science and data.
Committee Reports
Data Stewardship
Asked committee membership for budget input
Prepared committee poster for Summer Meeting
IT&I
Following up on the June IT&I Tech Dive on JupyterHub , Unidata and USGS personnel have been testing a “simulation model workflow in the cloud” environment. Climate, met and ocean simulations are conducted using HPC, then the resulting large datasets are moved to the cloud for access, analysis and visualization via JupyterHub. This avoids costly and inefficient downloads of data from cloud to local computers, as well as local security issues. This work will be reported at the ESIP Summer Meeting in the Geoscience in the Cloud session. July IT&I Tech Dive Talk (this Thursday) is “GeoServer Developments”.
Education
Shelley Olds and LuAnn Dahlman will represent ESIP at the Earth Educator's Rendezvous in Albuquerque next week. They'll be leading an educator workshop on using drones in STEM. The workshop has 27 registered participants, mostly from colleges and universities. [post photos to facebook]
Learning activities from the Drone e-book produced by the Education Committee last year are being posted on UCAR's Center for Science Education Engineering Activities site.
Semantic Tech
Planning for Summer Meeting - sessions include:
an overview of Apache open source semantic technologies;
Extending the use of a JSON format for encoding geospatial coverage data

Updated Sem Tech poster for summer meeting
Working with Drone cluster on pre-meeting workshop
Presentations on semantic technology developments:
Joint session with Drones on the W3C Semantic Sensor Network Ontology
Presentation by Doug Fils on an EarthCube effort to annotate facility home pages using schema.org to improve discoverability
Finance
Requested annual budget proposals from Committees and Working Groups. Proposals due August 15.
Governance
ESIP Policies and Procedures draft complete and sent to Erin and Bruce for review. The draft was also sent to the ESIP Board on June 23.
An example github version (in Markdown format) of the ESIP Policies and Procedures can be found here. Bruce and ESIP staff are looking at other options for document management and revision including Hugo, GitHub pages and MKDocs, which was used by the DataRefuge project.
Next Governance Committee meeting to discuss Board feedback on July 17.
Hope to have approval by the Board during the ESIP Summer Meeting.
Nominations
Met in May to review and recommend a winner for the Raskin Scholarship.
