The Big Data Innovation Hub for the Western United States will join stakeholders from academia, industry, non-profit institutions and the community who share common challenges and innovative approaches related to the acquisition, storage, analysis and integration of large or "messy" data, commonly referred to as Big Data. The West's Innovation Hub (Hub) will serve 13 states with Montana, Colorado and New Mexico marking the eastern boundary. This project will develop the organizational and governance structures for the Hub, and initiate efforts toward defining spoke activities for subsequent phases of the data innovation hubs program. The initial themes include Big Data technology, data-enabled scientific discovery and learning, managing natural resources and hazards, metro data science, and precision medicine. Partnerships fostered through the Hub will enable the use of Big Data to assess risks related to regional and long-term decisions. The Hub's structure will enable impact in later phases of the Hubs program that may include data-driven models for managing natural resources to tools for integrating self-collected patient data for more precise care options. Through coordination activities that inspire the action of its members, the Hub has the potential to facilitate the improved flow of commercial technologies in ways that maximize competitiveness for member organizations, such as universities, and vice versa: the Hub has the potential to expand the impact of its members' technologies through greater adoption or via start-ups. The Hub will be impactful by facilitating cross-discipline approaches to Big Data innovation and problem solving, influencing the next generation of thought leaders and data scientists. The partnerships enabled by the Hub will lead to professional certificate programs and student internships, creating a pipeline of graduates from partner institutions to impact corporations, public and governmental agencies, national labs, resource-planning agencies, and regulatory commissions.Project URL: BDHub.SDSC.edu

美国西部大数据创新中心将加入来自学术界、工业界、非营利机构和社区的利益相关者，他们分享与大型或“杂乱”数据（通常称为大数据）的获取、存储、分析和集成相关的共同挑战和创新方法。西部的创新中心（Hub）将服务于13个州，蒙大拿州，科罗拉多和新墨西哥州标志着东部边界。该项目将为数据创新中心开发组织和治理结构，并为数据创新中心计划的后续阶段定义辐条活动。最初的主题包括大数据技术，数据支持的科学发现和学习，管理自然资源和灾害，大都市数据科学和精准医学。通过该中心培养的伙伴关系将使大数据能够用于评估与区域和长期决策有关的风险。该中心的结构将对中心计划的后期阶段产生影响，其中可能包括用于管理自然资源的数据驱动模型，以及用于整合自我收集的患者数据以提供更精确的护理方案的工具。通过协调活动激励其成员采取行动，该中心有可能以最大限度地提高大学等成员组织竞争力的方式促进商业技术的更好流动，反之亦然：该中心有可能通过更广泛的采用或通过初创企业扩大其成员技术的影响。该中心将通过促进大数据创新和解决问题的跨学科方法来产生影响，影响下一代思想领袖和数据科学家。该中心促成的合作伙伴关系将带来专业证书课程和学生实习机会，为合作机构的毕业生创造一个影响企业、公共和政府机构、国家实验室、资源规划机构和监管委员会的管道。项目网址：BDHub.SDSC.edu
