[ESIP-all] Last call for abstracts in AGU Session IN-014: Data Discovery and Access Services

[Jeff de La Beaujardiere]

Last call for abstracts in session #IN-014, "Data Discovery and Access 
Services," at the American Geophysical Union (AGU) meeting on 3-7 
December 2012 in San Francisco. Abstract submissions close today at 
http://fallmeeting.agu.org/2012/ .

This session is part of the Earth and Space Science Informatics track, 
and will be convened by Jeff de La Beaujardiere (NOAA) and Ken Casey 
(NOAA NODC). Session Description:

"Publicly-funded Earth science data should be readily discoverable and 
accessible by potential users. Recent advances in data search and 
retrieval techniques enable the integration of services for finding data 
collections, narrowing down to individual data elements, and seamless 
subsetting and retrieval, using web portals or analysis software that 
support standardized protocols and formats.This session invites papers 
on new implementations of data discovery and access services, 
development of standards and best practices, linking of services from 
different providers in a system-of-systems approach, user tools that 
make use of this service infrastructure, techniques for enhancing 
searches across large or heterogeneous collections, and other related 
topics."
