EarthCube: A Framework for Geoscience Discovery
- 2. Imagine a World…. • With easy, unlimited access to scientific data and applications from any field • Where you can easily analyze data of interest and display them any way you want • Where you can easily model your results and explore any ideas you have These are goals of EarthCube – Cyberinfrastructure framework for the 21st century as built by the Geosciences
- 3. EarthCube is a Collaboration • Among Earth, atmosphere, ocean, polar, computer, information, and social scientists • Jointly funded by the NSF GEO Directorate and Advanced Cyberinfrastructure (ACI)
- 4. GEOSCIENCES ARE READY • Cyberinfrastructure (CI) is part of the research fabric of Geosciences • Geoscientists are sophisticated CI users and creators • NSF and other agencies support substantial infrastructure and research that will form the foundation of EarthCube • Community is connected by the science and collegial relationships
- 5. Why EarthCube? • Nature does not recognize separate disciplines • EarthCube will democratize access to data • EarthCube will increase research time by reducing time needed to find, access, and analyze data • EarthCube will enable more interdisciplinary research and the pursuit of new questions • EarthCube will accelerate the pace of discovery • EarthCube will give all scientists the same chance of making major contributions regardless of institution size or institutional endowment
- 6. The EarthCube Strategy CUASHI DataOne Unidata An alternative approach to respond to daunting science and cyberinfrastructure challenges NCAR IRIS IEDA • Engage all stakeholders: EarthCube is an outcome and a process OOI EarthCube: next generation CI to transform the conduct of geosciences Geosciences end-users Geosciences and CI facilities CI and Computer Science specialists • Build EarthCube iteratively, with community input and assessment • EarthCube built on existing resources, different geosciences communities cannot be uniformly served 6
- 7. A Social Endeavor www.EarthCube.org & http://workspace.EarthCube.org/ >1800 members to the EarthCube website 113 white paper submission;185 respondents to capability survey 27 Community/Special Interest Groups; 18 Roadmaps Untold number of hours of pro-bono contributions by the community ~80 formal Expressions of Interest 13 Building Blocks, RCNs, Governance, & INSPIRE awards Significant international engagement and building interagency engagement (currently)
- 9. • An approach to respond to daunting science and CI challenges • An outcome and a process • A knowledge management system • An infrastructure • An integrated framework • An integrated system • A cyberinfrastructure • An integrated set of services • An architectural framework

- 12. Guiding Principles 1. Serve advancement of interdisciplinary science through collaboration among community members and with other CI initiatives 2. Rely on open, transparent processes; vet and inform decisions through active community engagement 3. Encourage environmentally sustainable processes and practices 4. Support development that draws from best practices based on interoperability and reuse of resources 5. Strive for free and open sharing of data, information, software and services 6. Evolve with changing technologies, practices and user needs while remaining robust

- With easy, unlimited access to data and applications from any fieldWhere you can easily analyze data of interest and display them any way you wantWhere you can easily model your results and explore any ideas you have
- SoEarthCube is both an outcome: producing the next generation of CI that will transform the conduct of the geosciences. But it is also a process. One that engages all of the relevant stakeholders in a collaborative approach; is build in a step-wise fashion with community input guiding the directions that we move in. And finally in this process we must acknowledge that we don’t start in a vacuum. We will build from the several significant, but diverse, resources that already support our science. But may not serve the entire community. We also recognize that a single solution may not be sufficient
- a standard of performance for a defined population
- This summer (Aug. 4-8) we are taking a fieldtrip to Yosemite and Owens Valley to discuss cyberinfrastructure. We want to get Computer Scientists and Geologist talking about best practices associated with workflows that can better facilitate the pathways of data from the field and into our databases. And of course, the best place to have these conversations is in the field. This fieldtrip is associated with the NSF-funded, RCN project:EC3 – Earth-Centered Communication for Cyberinfrastructure: Challenges of field data collection, management, and integration.This trip is fully funded by the RCN grant, i.e., all of your travel expenses, lodging, food, etc. will be paid for by the grant. Additionally, we have budgeted a small amount for an honorarium for those who participate.So, if you want to go to one of the most beautiful places in the world and contribute to the conversation about how best to get our field data more easily into the appropriate databases and other associated issues, please submit an application.The application is very short and easy to fill out, but the deal line is approaching rapidly. I need the applications e-mailed to me by the end of the day on March 10th. You can download the application with the following link: http://earthcube.org/sites/default/files/uploaded-files/EC3-App-Form_final.docxIf you know of any other Earth Scientists, Computer Scientists, Cognitive Scientists, or anyone who deals with issues surrounding Educational Technology who might be interested, please forward them this e-mail.
