[ESIP-all] Monday Update: Around the Federation Catch-up | Job Opportunities | Fall AGU esip-all Session List

[Erin Robinson]

Hi All -

After a terrific ESIP Summer Meeting the week of July 16, last week was a
bit of recovery. Material from the meeting is being posted to the ESIP
Commons <http://commons.esipfed.org/schedule/Summer%20Meeting%202012>,
where I hope to have the videos of plenary sessions, ppts, posters and
notes by the end of the week. Pictures have been posted to the ESIP
Facebook group <https://www.facebook.com/groups/26532111825/>. If you have
photos from the week, please share there.

Today's update is more of a catch-up of things going on around the
Federation:

DataOne goes live <http://www.dataone.org/news/dataone-goes-live>! As the
earth and environmental sciences evolve to be more data-intensive,
discovering, integrating and analyzing massive amounts of heterogeneous
information becomes critical to enable researchers to address complex
questions about our environment and our role within it. DataONE, the Data
Observation Network for Earth, today released technology capable of
providing researchers access to globally distributed, networked data from a
single point of discovery.

NASA's Earth Observer
newsletter<http://eospso.gsfc.nasa.gov/eos_observ/pdf/July_Aug_2012_col_508.pdf>was
sent out today - One highlight was the 2012 Gregory G. Leptoukh Online
Giovanni Workshop for Scientists, High School, and Undergrad Educators (see
the Giovanni site<http://disc.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/giovanni/additional/newsletters/gregory_leptoukh_2012_online_giovanni_workshop>for
details)
