> Big Data in the Geosciences

> Final Call For Papers - Submission Deadline is August 30th
> 
> Big Data in the Geosciences is a one day workshop being co-located at the IEEE International Big Data Conference, which will be held Oct 29th - Nov 01st, 2015 in Santa Clara, CA, USA
> 
> The workshop focuses on highlighting the state-of-the-art research surrounding Big Data in the geosciences. We seek to engage the scientific community in understanding their big data challenges and problems. Finally, we aim to identify gaps in current technologies as well as gaps in the education of new data scientists. This workshop will provide a venue for participants to showcase innovative tools and services, build new collaborations, and hear from application scientists and educators about the challenges they face.
> 
> Topics of Interest include, but are not limited to the following:
> 
> Big Data in Geosciences - needs, requirements, and use cases
> Big Data infrastructure being developed and deployed at science facilities
> Semantic representation and integration including Linked Open Data and efficient query and integration techniques
> Frameworks and methodologies for handling big data in science applications
> Data analytics utilized/needed for data reduction, cross-heterogeneous data analysis, and science reserch
> Use of Big Data technologies (e.g. Hadoop and NoSQL) for science
> Visualization of scientific Big Data
> Big Data and Data Science education in the geosciences
