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.
Since 2011, the ESIP Community Fellows Program has served as a gateway for early career researchers to connect with the Earth data science community. This session shares 15 years of program successes, including case studies of impactful work led by Community Fellows (30 minutes), then explores new opportunities for evolving the program based on recommendations compiled from a recent survey of the 2025 cohort of Fellows (60 minutes). The session invites anyone who wants to learn about what results in a successful collaboration, who has participated in the Fellows program as a student or mentor, or who wants to be involved in discussions on how best to support early career Earth science data professionals through ESIP.
