Goals for Our Science • Maximum outcomes from our investments (human, financial, etc) • Increased dialog and collaboration • between CI and GEO domains • among stakeholders – a very broad category (researchers, educators, industry, policy-makers, int’l , etc) • A systematic approach determined by the community • Creating Value; Mitigating Harm; Stability and Agility
The EarthCube Strategy DataOne CUASHI Unidata • The process must • Engage all stakeholders: Geosciences end-users • Geosciences and CI facilities • CI and Computer Science specialists • Build EarthCube iteratively, with community input and assessment in yearly intervals • EarthCube built on existing resources, understanding that different geosciences communities are cannot be uniformly served NCAR IEDA IRIS OOI
