     Session Family: Overview Sessions
     Session Title: “Dealing with the Data Deluge and Silo-ed Storage:
     What Can We Learn from Data Experts and Our Colleagues?”
     *
     *Short title (for abstract submission): “Data Challenges and
     Approaches in Astrobiology”
     *
     *Description: *As we collect larger and larger datasets, new
     challenges are emerging with regard to data storage, distribution,
     standards, and processing, to name a few. Astrobiology and it's
     interdisciplinary nature adds another layer of complexity in sharing
     data across disciplines. This session will provide an opportunity to
     learn from data experts in astronomy, bioinformatics, geology, and
     ocean sciences, as well as hear about the challenges they are
     facing. The final 30 minutes of the session will be a series of two
     minute lighting talks where audience members can share their data
     challenges and solutions to begin identifying opportunities to learn
     from and build on each other's work.
