[ESIP-all] Announcing AGU Session IN15: Envisioning Improvements for Earth Science Data Access

[Moses, John F. (GSFC-5860)]

Dear Friends and Colleagues,



Announcing 2011 Fall AGU Session IN15:  Envisioning Improvements for Earth Science Data Access.



The 2011 Fall Meeting will be held on 5-9 December 2011 in San Francisco, California.



The deadline for abstracts is 4 August 2011 (a month earlier than last year).

AGU Abstract Submission Policies and a link to submit your abstract is available at http://sites.agu.org/fallmeeting/scientific-program/submit-policies/

IN15 Session Description: Today's researchers are dependent on multiple methods to discover and get data from the many data centers that collect and provide internet access to the large quantities of data from spacecraft and in-situ observations. Organizations receive guidance from steering committees, user focus groups, and surveys. They collect metrics and perform web analysis. This session covers topics on expected improvements in information services and the rationale for their selection. Improvements include scalable systems and projects that guide effective Web services, user data access methods and tools, interoperability among centers, use of standards such the OGC and the OpenDAP, ISO metadata and archive information packaging.



This will be a great opportunity to share your experience, plans and vision for future Earth science data access.  We are looking forward to hearing from you!
