> Hi all
> 
> We hope to see many of you at the AGU Fall Meeting.
> 
> A number of activities and sessions at the AGU Fall Meeting will highlight the increasing importance of data and data science.
> 
> First, Monday Evening will feature a Conversation with DJ Patil, the Chief Data Scientist of the United States (in Moscone South room 104 at 615-715). https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm15/meetingapp.cgi/Session/10058 <https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm15/meetingapp.cgi/Session/10058>  DJ was appointed to the White House in early 2015 and is responsible for helping shape US policies and practices around data and technology.  DJ was previously the Chief Scientist at LinkedIn among other leading data and technology positions and helped coin the term “data scientist."
> 
> There is also a “data swirl” for the first time, connecting many sessions on data across the sections and focus group sessions (see the Fall Meeting program).
> 
> From Tuesday-Thursday afternoon at 330-430, there will be panel discussions in the exhibit hall as part of a “data fair” aimed at connecting researchers with repositories, data providers and facilities.  Further details on the program are here: https://fallmeeting.agu.org/2015/event/agu-data-fair <https://fallmeeting.agu.org/2015/event/agu-data-fair>  This fair will also include a map of exhibitors that serve as key data repositories and other information.  Please participate and encourage others.  We hope that these events will help raise the visibility and importance of open data and data issues.
