Science moves forward at least partly because of data. In turn, publicly accessible datasets are an imperative for a country to benefit from its science. In the past, scientists have relied mostly on printed data, often published in many journals from around the world. Today, data are increasingly available online. The increase in data availability allows scientists to use integrated datasets and to test models. In this period of increasingly 'big data,' scientists are working together with data specialists to learn to manage, share, and interrogate data. Some disciplines lag in the process of publishing data online for data sharing and public accessibility. One example is low-temperature geochemistry and geobiology (LTGG). LTGG includes data for water, soils, rocks, air, organic material, built materials, living organisms, and other materials. The sheer diversity of samples and diversity of types of analyses makes these datasets difficult to manage. Some datasets are very large (sensors, remote sensing) while others are relatively low in volume but high in descriptive complexity. These issues lead to questions about the best way to move forward with data management in LTGG, and the best way to strategize about data publication in this field. This proposed effort will fund a series of webinars, surveys of the community, a workshop, a post-workshop meeting, a white paper, and final publication that will address the question of what to do with data in the field of LTGG. With these publicly accessible outcomes, the work will position the LTGG for a future of data sharing that provides data to the public and promotes open science. A workshop is proposed to be held in 2020 to develop a proposed roadmap for geochemical data for the Low-Temperature Geochemistry and Geobiology program at NSF. This workshop will bring together leading scientists in the fields of geochemical science and data science. The workshop will be held in university or hotel facilities in a hub for major airlines to facilitate travel by participants. The final goal of this workshop will be to produce a written document that lays the groundwork for advances in management of low-temperature geochemical and geobiological data (with little to no emphasis on genomics data). The first product will be development of a white paper that will be placed online for public comment. After receiving comments, the team will write a peer-reviewed publication with lessons learned and the roadmap. In the workshop, small- and large-group discussions will be fostered so that workshop participants can identify needs within geochemistry and data science that could be addressed. Participants will also develop a list of targeted priorities for the roadmap. All participants will listen to webinars and write text before the workshop: this will ensure that a white paper and final publication will be completed. All facilities and materials will be accessible to anyone who needs accommodations (hearing-, sight-impaired or the physically disabled). The outcome of the project will be a community-led roadmap for moving forward with low-temperature geochemical data.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

科学的进步至少部分是因为数据。反过来，公开可访问的数据集是一个国家从其科学中受益的必要条件。过去，科学家们主要依赖印刷数据，这些数据通常发表在世界各地的许多期刊上。如今，在线数据越来越多。数据可用性的增加使科学家能够使用综合数据集和测试模型。在这个越来越“大数据”的时代，科学家们正在与数据专家合作，学习管理、共享和查询数据。有些学科在网上公布数据以供数据共享和公众查阅的过程中滞后。低温地球化学和地球生物学（LTGG）就是一个例子。LTGG包括水、土壤、岩石、空气、有机材料、建筑材料、生物体和其他材料的数据。样本的多样性和分析类型的多样性使得这些数据集难以管理。有些数据集非常大（传感器、遥感），而另一些数据集的数量相对较少，但描述的复杂性很高。这些问题导致了关于LTGG中数据管理的最佳方式以及该领域数据发布策略的最佳方式的问题。这项拟议的努力将资助一系列网络研讨会、社区调查、研讨会、研讨会后会议、白色文件和最终出版物，这些文件将解决如何处理LTGG领域的数据的问题。有了这些可公开访问的成果，这项工作将使LTGG面向数据共享的未来，向公众提供数据并促进开放科学。 计划于2020年举办一次研讨会，为NSF的低温地球化学和地球生物学计划制定地球化学数据的拟议路线图。本次研讨会将汇集地球化学科学和数据科学领域的顶尖科学家。研讨会将在主要航空公司枢纽的大学或酒店设施举行，以方便与会者的旅行。该讲习班的最终目标是编写一份书面文件，为低温地球化学和地球生物学数据管理方面的进展奠定基础（很少或根本不强调基因组学数据）。第一个产品将是一个白色文件，将放在网上征求公众意见的发展。 在收到评论后，该团队将编写一份同行评审的出版物，其中包括经验教训和路线图。在讲习班上，将促进小型和大型小组讨论，以便讲习班参与者能够确定可以解决的地球化学和数据科学方面的需求。与会者还将为路线图制定一份有针对性的优先事项清单。所有参与者将在研讨会之前收听网络研讨会并撰写文本：这将确保完成白色论文和最终出版物。所有设施和材料将向任何需要住宿的人（听力、视力受损或身体残疾者）提供。该项目的成果将是一个由社区主导的低温地球化学数据推进路线图。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
