This Division of Earth Sciences Geoinformatics collaborative award supports continued development of Neotoma, a web-accessible centralized data clearinghouse for paleoecological data for which initial development support was provided by the EAR Geoinformatics Program (EAR- 0948652). This effort will enhance the current Neotoma platform by: 1) maximizing rates of data ingest through on-going data mobilization campaigns, recruitment and training of new data stewards, and development of facilitation software; 2) expanding the Neotoma data model to facilitate new proxy acquisition and secondary data including organic biomarkers, isotopic data from faunal specimens, and faunal taphonomic information; 3) developing new tools for data visualization and scientific exploration; 4) fostering engagement and growth of the Neotoma research community through support for a series of workshops intended to train data users, data stewards, and teachers, and by development of an on-line blog.The Neotoma geoinformatics platform will promote integrative studies of the biotic impacts of climate change over the past five million years by allowing greater access to previously collected geoscience data sets of relevance and the tools to support analysis at marginal cost. The project will promote community engagement, support ease of data set ingestion, address PI team succession and promote educational module development. This award directly addresses OMB Memo M-13-13 ?Open Data Policy-Managing Information as an Asset.?***

这项地球科学部的地球信息学协作奖支持Neotoma的持续发展，Neotoma是一个可访问网络访问的集中数据清算室，用于古生态数据，该数据由EAR地球形式计划（EAR-0948652）提供了初步的开发支持。 这项工作将通过：1）通过正在进行的数据动员活动，新数据管家的招聘和培训以及促进软件的开发来最大程度地提高当前的Neotoma平台； 2）扩展新瘤数据模型，以促进新的代理获取和二级数据，包括有机生物标志物，来自动物标本的同位素数据以及动物taphonomic信息； 3）开发用于数据可视化和科学探索的新工具； 4）通过支持一系列旨在培训数据用户，数据管理员和教师的研讨会，并通过开发在线博客来促进Neotoma研究社区的参与和成长。NeotomaGeoInformatics平台将促进对过去五百万年的生物变化的综合研究，通过在过去的500万年中允许对以前的地理位置进行分析，以促进相关的分析，以促进相关性的分析，以促进相关性的工具，并将其设置为一部分，并将其促进综合性。 该项目将促进社区参与，支持易于数据摄入，解决PI团队的继承并促进教育模块的发展。 该奖项直接介绍OMB备忘录M-13-13？开放数据政策管理信息作为资产。
