Collaborative Research: Facility: Next Generation Interoperable Data Infrastructure for Geoscience Sample Data (EarthChem, LEPR/traceDs, SESAR): IEDA Re-invented

跨学科地球数据联盟（IEDA 2）：来自NSF资助的研究协会的固体地球地球科学数据越来越依赖于数据生存。研究人员需要确保他们创建的数据可以公开访问，为未来提供保护，并可以再次用于社区内的进一步研究和教学目的。他们需要一个数据库来存储和管理数据，并使其他研究人员和其他可能对使用数据感兴趣的人可以在线访问数据。在这个项目中，地球科学领域的三个数据系统（EarthChem、SESAR、LEPR/traceDs）已经作为数据的数字图书馆超过15年，它们通过IEDA 2设施联合起来，创建更好的数据共享工具和实践，使任何人都能更容易地在一个位置发现和访问以前不相连的研究数据。这些新工具将帮助人类和机器更快、更准确地访问数据。EarthChem是地球化学、岩石学、矿物学和相关社区的开放数据提供商。EarthChem的服务包括数据发布、数据保存、发现、访问和可视化。在这一项目中，地球化学公司将进行必要的开发，以实现技术实施的现代化和优化，加强用户功能，扩大可获取的数据库，并与广大用户和数据设施接触，以建立地球化学数据的最佳做法和互操作性标准。EarthChem将重组和重新设计其系统，以确保其数据服务能够适应不断变化的社区需求，并确保运营效率、弹性和可持续性得到优化。数据科学方法的新发展和应用将通过改善人类和机器可读的界面来支持下一代数据驱动研究模式，以发现，访问，可视化和分析EarthChem数据系统中的内容。实验相关系库（LEPR）和traceDs是包含已发表的实验研究结果的数据库，这些研究涉及与天然岩浆系统相关的液-固-流相平衡。汇编成LEPR/traceD的数据将与EarthChem Synthesis连接，以便更广泛地访问，以支持建模和数据分析。SESAR是一个独特的样本元数据存储库，它提供的服务使样本更具兼容性和互操作性。SESAR将扩大其用户社区，超越地球化学和地球科学。此外，SESAR的服务将转移到一个新的、独立的、多学科的样本注册基础设施，这是一个与生物学、基因组学和考古学方面的网络基础设施提供商单独资助的合作项目。IEDA 2还将大大增加与其服务的社区和用户的接触，特别是学生和早期职业研究人员（ECR）。为研究人员和教育工作者举办的在线和现场研讨会，以了解如何使用IEDA 2资源，这些资源将与科学教育资源中心SERC和全国地球科学教师协会（NAGT）合作运行和推广，旨在扩大数据设施的覆盖范围，同时招募和支持新一代多样化的地球科学家。与纽约城市学院、南达科他州矿业学院和奥格拉拉拉科塔学院的学生、教育工作者和研究人员开展的活动将扩大对数据科学的参与。将CARE本土数据治理原则整合到IEDA 2中将支持社区范围内在样本和样本数据中采用这些道德规范。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。

Interdisciplinary Earth Data Alliance (IEDA2): Solid Earth Geoscience Data from NSF-Funded ResearchSociety relies more and more on data to survive. Researchers need to make sure that data they create are openly accessible, protected for the future, and can be used again for further research and teaching purposes within the community. They need a home for their data that stores and curates the data and makes it accessible online to other researchers and others who may be interested in the use of the data. In this project, three data systems in the Earth Sciences (EarthChem, SESAR, LEPR/traceDs) that have for over 15 years served as digital libraries for data are joining forces through the IEDA2 facility to create better data sharing tools and practices and to make it easier for anybody to discover and access data from previously disconnected studies in a single location. These new tools will help humans as well as machines access data faster and with accuracy. EarthChem is an open data provider for the geochemical, petrological, mineralogical, and related communities. EarthChem’s services include data publication, data preservation, discovery, access, and visualization. In this project, EarthChem will undertake essential developments to modernize and optimize technical implementation, enhance user functions, expand accessible data holdings, and engage with a broad community of users and data facilities to establish best practices and interoperability standards for geochemical data. EarthChem will restructure and reengineer its systems to ensure that its data services scale to evolving community demands and that operations are optimized for efficiency, resilience, and sustainability. New developments and applications of data science approaches will support next generation modes of data-driven research by improving both human and machine-readable interfaces for discovery, access, visualization, and analysis of content in EarthChem data systems. The Library of Experimental Phase Relations (LEPR) and traceDs are databases that comprise results of published experimental studies involving liquid-solid-fluid phase equilibria relevant to natural magmatic systems. Data compiled into LEPR/traceDs will be connected to the EarthChem Synthesis for broader access in order to support modeling and data analytics. SESAR is a unique repository for sample metadata that provides services to make samples more discoverable and interoperable. SESAR will expand its user community beyond geochemistry and the Earth Sciences. In addition, SESAR’s services will move to a new, independent, multi-disciplinary infrastructure for sample registration, a separately funded collaborative effort with cyberinfrastructure providers in biology, genomics, and archeology. IEDA2 will also substantially increase engagement with the communities and users it serves, specifically students and early-career researchers (ECRs). Online and in-person workshops for researchers and educators to learn about using IEDA2 resources that will be run and promoted in collaboration with the Science Education Resource Center SERC and the National Association of Geoscience Teachers (NAGT), aim to expand the reach of the data facility, while recruiting and supporting a new and diverse generation of geoscientists. Activities with students, educators, and researchers at City College of New York, South Dakota Mines, and Oglala Lakota College will broaden participation in data science. Integration of the CARE Principles for Indigenous Data Governance into IEDA2 will support the community-wide adoption of these ethics in sample and sample 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.
