This EAGER award focuses on exploring the feasibility of the implementation of a new paradigm in the development of an integrative and interoperable data and knowledge management system for the geosciences for a new NSF initiative called EarthCube. Led by a team of experts in geoscience data management, this project focuses on developing a loosely coupled web service approach to allow geoscience data repositories to more effectively make their data holdings discoverable and available to the public. One project goal will be to test the utility of the RESTful (representative state transfer) approach. Its target will be more to link together of disparate geoscience data types from widely distributed data repositories so new types of data-enabled science can be realized. The project engages data management groups from most of the major NSF-funded geoscience data facilities as well as those from a variety of major European geoscience data holdings. This interaction will not only allow broader testing of developed web services, but will also provide a much needed forum to exchange ideas and approaches allowing a better return on investment. One key aspect of this project is the development of URL builders to help users formulate web service requests. Broader impacts of the work include the development of new infrastructure for science and engineering and the likelihood that what results from this project will be applicable to fields outside of the geosciences. An additional broader impact is an international component that engages Italian and other European scientists and data networks as collaborators in the activity.

该 EAGER 奖项的重点是探索在为地球科学开发集成且可互操作的数据和知识管理系统的过程中实施新范式的可行性，以实现 NSF 名为 EarthCube 的新计划。该项目由地球科学数据管理专家团队领导，重点开发一种松散耦合的 Web 服务方法，使地球科学数据存储库能够更有效地向公众发现和使用其数据。项目目标之一是测试 RESTful（代表性状态转移）方法的实用性。其目标更多是将来自广泛分布的数据存储库的不同地球科学数据类型链接在一起，从而实现新型数据驱动的科学。该项目涉及来自大多数 NSF 资助的主要地球科学数据设施以及来自欧洲各种主要地球科学数据持有机构的数据管理小组。这种交互不仅允许对开发的网络服务进行更广泛的测试，而且还将提供一个急需的论坛来交流想法和方法，从而获得更好的投资回报。该项目的一个关键方面是开发 URL 构建器来帮助用户制定 Web 服务请求。这项工作的更广泛影响包括开发新的科学和工程基础设施，以及该项目的成果可能适用于地球科学以外的领域。另一个更广泛的影响是国际组成部分，它让意大利和其他欧洲科学家和数据网络作为活动的合作者。
