We are a home for Earth science data and computing professionals. Our sessions bring together the community for hands-on, interdisciplinary deep dives as we explore "Bridging Divides: Data, Technology, Community" this year. Learn more about this theme on the ESIP Meetings page.
Session and plenary recordings will be published on the ESIP YouTube Channel.
This session will seek to bring tool developers together with metadata curators to explore how we can work together to make more data more usable through improved standards compliance and more robust metadata. Metadata curation, data product design, standards development, and software engineering are typically done by completely separate teams, but software that makes Earth science data accessible requires standardized formats and data models, and robust, standards-compliant metadata. As ESDIS moves away from bespoke data tools toward an integrated environment of shared, enterprise-class tools and services, this session aims to bring together diverse groups to understand how to work more cooperatively to improve data FAIRness.
Audience Metadata curators, software engineers, and data producers (scientists) who want to improve data FAIRness
