CENTER FOR INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION STUDIES

The Usability & Assessment and Sociocultural Working Groups of the NSF-funded Data Observation Network for Earth (DataONE) Project met Apr. 30 to May 2, 2013 in the Scripps Convergence Lab. DataONE working groups concentrate the intellectual efforts of a team of experts during intense one week meetings resulting in collaborative outcomes to achieve the DataONE goals. These experts represent the University of Tennessee, Oak Ridge National Lab, and a host of other universities, government agencies, and research centers. The Usability and Assessment Working Group Co-Leaders are Carol Tenopir (CCI-SIS) and Mike Frame (USGS, SIS Adjunct). The Sociocultural Working Co-Leaders are Suzie Allard and Kimberly Douglass (CCI-SIS). DataONE is a sustainable cyberinfrastructure that meets the needs of science and society for open, persistent, robust, and secure access to well-described and easily discovered Earth observational data, for more information:  dataone.org.
