Scientific research in most scientific fields today involves significant amounts of data as well as software to operate on that data. Furthermore, research increasingly requires data from across a number of sources, perhaps even fields. This is a significant challenge for the scientific community, and better solutions are needed in order to enable new discoveries and accelerate the societal impacts from those discoveries. The approach in this project is to follow in the footsteps of the web and it aims to standardize how scientific data is described, allowing for tools addressing the above challenges, such as search engines for scientific data that not only support discoverability but also facilitate the usage of the data.The DeCODER project will expand and extend the successful EarthCube GeoCODES platform and community to unify data and tool description and re-use across geoscience domains. Building on the NSF CIF21 vision, the EarthCube program was formed to address the technological challenges surrounding data and software within the geosciences. Through extensive interaction with the community this culminated in two key activities around data discovery and reuse. First, the promotion, refinement, and adoption of schema.org to annotate geosciences metadata within distributed repositories so that datasets can be crawled. Second, the promotion and support for the adoption of notebooks to document, share, and reuse software as peer reviewed scholarly objects. A rallying point around these activities was the GeoCODES platform, which allows communities to stand up instances of scientific search engines specific to their domains, while building a community of geoscience data users and developers and, ultimately, reducing the time to science. This project will leverage this effort in the DeCODER platform to enable similar activities and outcomes across scientific communities. This work will continue the endeavor to support the scientific community in the adoption of schema.org and notebooks, facilitating this by providing DeCODER as an open source resource that can be customized by a given scientific community to create lightweight scientific gateways that bring together relevant distributed resources.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.

今天，大多数科学领域的科学研究都涉及到大量的数据以及对这些数据进行操作的软件。此外，研究越来越需要来自多个来源，甚至可能是各个领域的数据。这对科学界来说是一个重大挑战，需要更好的解决方案，以实现新的发现，并加速这些发现的社会影响。这个项目的方法是跟随网络的脚步，旨在标准化科学数据的描述方式，允许工具解决上述挑战，例如科学数据的搜索引擎，它不仅支持可发现性，而且还促进了数据的使用。DeCODER项目将扩展和扩展成功的EarthCube GeoCODES平台和社区，以统一数据和工具描述以及跨地球科学领域的重用。在NSF CIF21愿景的基础上，EarthCube项目的成立是为了解决地球科学中围绕数据和软件的技术挑战。通过与社区的广泛互动，最终形成了围绕数据发现和重用的两个关键活动。首先，推广、改进和采用schema.org在分布式存储库中注释地球科学元数据，以便可以抓取数据集。第二，促进和支持采用笔记本来记录、共享和重用软件，作为同行评审的学术对象。围绕这些活动的一个集合点是GeoCODES平台，该平台允许社区建立特定于其领域的科学搜索引擎实例，同时建立地球科学数据用户和开发人员社区，最终减少科学时间。该项目将在DeCODER平台上利用这一努力，使科学界能够开展类似的活动并取得成果。这项工作将继续努力支持科学社区采用schema.org和笔记本，通过提供DeCODER作为开源资源来促进这一点，该资源可以由给定的科学社区定制，以创建轻量级的科学网关，将相关的分布式资源聚集在一起。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。
