Our session is first thing in the morning. Please send a 1/2 page bio to Cliff to help introduce you Discussion Session One— Scientific Data as Research Infrastructure • 9:00 • Session Chair, Cliff Duke, ESA • Panelists: • Bonnie Carroll, IIa • Alex DeSherbinin, CIESIN, Columbia U • Alexa McCray, Harvard Medical School • Michael Nelson, Microsoft Research • 10:20 Break
Discussion Session Three -- Current Policies for the Long-term Availability of Research Data • Bonnie Carroll, IIa • Alex DeSherbinin, CIESIN, Columbia U • Alexa McCray, Harvard Medical School • Michael Nelson, Microsoft Research
USER NEEDS: What processes are in place, or needed, to determine the needs of the various science communities for data repositories? • DEFINING THE COMMUNITY: How do we define the user community for a particular repository, e.g. by discipline, institution, etc.? Are there optimal ways to do so that enhance repository sustainability? • COMMON PRINCIPLES vs SPECIFIC STANDARDS: To what extent are there, or should there be, common principles (e.g., data acceptance and retention criteria, access and use rules) for the operation of repositories serving different user communities, as opposed to each community developing its own?
