Building Upon the EarthCube Community. A Geoscience and Cyberinfrastructure Workshop

为期两天的“建立在地球立方社区”研讨会将举行，以启动一项努力，将汇集来自学术界，非营利组织和工业界的参与者。这次研讨会的目的是继续地球立方体倡议带来的势头，包括地球科学家和网络基础设施专家之间的协同互动。 特别鼓励早期职业参与者参与，以确保这些跨学科的合作更好地满足他们的需求，因为他们通过自己的职业生涯前进。这次地球科学/网络基础设施研讨会将激发科学和技术专家之间的协同作用和发现，以推进网络基础设施和地球科学研究转型的目标。为了激发合作和思想共享，为期两天的研讨会将包括前沿科学讲座，演示，可执行笔记本，海报，实践活动，以及关于充分利用技术促进科学发展的互动会议。在EarthCube社区研讨会上的建设将启动新一代科学和技术专家的合作，他们将为增加NSF和其他联邦资助的研究成果的影响做出重大贡献，从而增加公众和开放获取数据的机会。为此，该研讨会将通过20个旅行奖来支持早期职业参与者，优先考虑属于传统上在地球科学中代表性不足的群体的个人。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

A two day “Building Upon the EarthCube Community” workshop will take place to launch an effort which will bring together participants from academia, non-profits, and industry. The intent of this workshop is to continue the momentum brought upon by the EarthCube initiative consisting of synergistic interactions between geoscientists and cyberinfrastructure experts. Early-career participants are especially encouraged to participate to ensure that these interdisciplinary collaborations better serve their needs as they advance through their careers. This geoscience/cyberinfrastructure workshop will spark synergies and discoveries among science and technology experts to advance the goal of transforming research in cyberinfrastructure and the geosciences. To spark collaboration and the sharing of ideas, the two-day workshop will be designed to include cutting edge science talks, demonstrations, executable notebooks, posters, hands-on activities, as well as interactive sessions on making the best use of technologies to advance science. The Building Upon the EarthCube Community Workshop will kick-start the collaborations of a new generation of science and technology experts who will significantly contribute to increasing the impact of the output of NSF and other federally-funded research thereby increasing public and open access to data. To this end, the workshop will support early-career participants through twenty travel awards, with priority given to individuals belonging to groups traditionally underrepresented in the geosciences.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.
