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（IEDA2）：来自美国国家科学基金会资助的研究协会的固体地球科学数据越来越依赖于数据来生存。研究人员需要确保他们创建的数据是可以公开访问的，为将来提供保护，并且可以再次用于社区内进一步的研究和教学目的。他们需要一个存储和管理数据的数据之家，并使其他研究人员和其他可能对使用这些数据感兴趣的人可以在线访问这些数据。在这个项目中，地球科学领域的三个数据系统（EarthChem、SESAR、LEPR/traceDs）作为数据数字图书馆已有15年以上的历史，它们将通过IEDA2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地方发现和访问以前互不关联的研究数据。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。在该项目中，EarthChem将承担必要的开发工作，以实现技术实施的现代化和优化，增强用户功能，扩大可访问的数据量，并与广泛的用户和数据设施社区合作，建立地球化学数据的最佳实践和互操作性标准。EarthChem将对其系统进行重组和重新设计，以确保其数据服务能够满足不断变化的社区需求，并优化运营效率、弹性和可持续性。数据科学方法的新发展和应用将通过改进人类和机器可读的界面来发现、访问、可视化和分析EarthChem数据系统中的内容，从而支持下一代数据驱动研究模式。实验相关系库（LEPR）和traceDs是包含与自然岩浆系统有关的液-固-流相平衡的已发表实验研究结果的数据库。编译到LEPR/traceDs中的数据将连接到EarthChem Synthesis，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容易被发现和互操作。SESAR将把它的用户群体扩展到地球化学和地球科学之外。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、基因组学和考古学的网络基础设施提供商单独资助的合作项目。IEDA2还将大大增加与它所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提供的在线和面对面研讨会将与科学教育资源中心SERC和国家地球科学教师协会（NAGT）合作开展和推广，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的活动将扩大数据科学的参与范围。将CARE土著数据治理原则纳入IEDA2将支持社区在样本和样本数据中采用这些道德规范。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，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.
