  2. Outline

  3. Context ---- Science and Cyberinfrastructure EarthCube

  4. “Fostering a sustainable future through a better understanding of our complex and changing planet.” NSF’s GEO Vision report, 2009 Science Context

  5. Science foundations for EarthCube PURPOSE: “To understand more deeply the planet and its interactions will require the geosciences to take an increasingly holistic approach, exploring knowledge coming from all scientific and engineering disciplines.” CALL TO ACTION: “Over the next decade, the geosciences community commits to developing a framework to understand and predict responses of the Earth as a system—from the space-atmosphere boundary to the core, including the influences of humans and ecosystems.” NSF’s GEO Vision report

  6. Research Vessel Sikuliaq EarthScope Observatory Network Arctic Sea Ice Era of Observation and Simulation Oceans Water Earth System Modeling Satellites

  7. Crossroad Challenges of GEOvision The Dynamic Earth Water:Changing Perspective GEO CI The Changing Climate Geosphere-Biosphere Connections Earth and Life

  8. “… a new age has dawned in scientific and engineering research, pushed by continuing progress in computing, information, and communication technology, and pulled by the expanding complexity, scope, and scale of today's challenges. The capacity of this technology has crossed thresholds that now make possible a comprehensive “cyberinfrastructure” on which to build new types of scientific and engineering knowledge environments and organizations and to pursue research in new ways and with increased efficacy.” Revolutionizing Science and Engineering Through Cyberinfrastructure: Report of the National Science Foundation Blue Ribbon Advisory Panel on Cyberinfrastructure, 2003 Cyberinfrastructure Context

  9. Science and Society Transformed by Data • Modern geoscience • Data- and compute-intensive • Integrative, multi-scale • Multi-disciplinary collaborations to address complexity • Individuals, groups, teams, communities • Sea of Data • Age of Observation • Distributed, central repositories, sensor- driven, diverse, etc

  10. CyberinfrastructureEcosystem (CIF21) Organizations Universities, schools Government labs, agencies Research and Medical Centers Libraries, Museums Virtual Organizations Communities Scientific Instruments Large Facilities, MREFCs,telescopes Colliders, shake Tables Sensor Arrays - Ocean, environment, weather, buildings, climate. etc Expertise Research and Scholarship Education Learning and Workforce Development Interoperability and operations Cyberscience Discovery Collaboration Education Data Databases, Data repositories Collections and Libraries Data Access; storage, navigation management, mining tools, curation, privacy Computational Resources Supercomputers Clouds, Grids, Clusters Modeling, Visualization Compute services Data Centers Networking Campus, national, international networks Research and experimental networks End-to-end throughput Cybersecurity Software Applications, middleware Software development and support Cybersecurity: access, authorization, authentication Maintainability, sustainability, and extensibility

  11. Transforming Earth Science Grand Challenge EarthCube Multi-disciplinary & multi-scale integration CIF21 Expertise, research Software Networks Compute, Modeling Communities Analytic Tools Sea of Data

  12. Transformational The Vision

  13. Vision=EarthCube Goal and Outcomes

  14. Obtaining the Vision CUASHI Unidata OOI IEDA NCAR IRIS The unlabeled dots represent the “long-tail” of science which is graphically under represented in this diagram. Also, the large dots under represent all the community-guided activities in support of geosciences.

  15. Strategic Convergence Using “Spiral Development” Given: almost all the technologies used today to provide cyberinfrastructure to the geosciences will be refreshed in the next decade. 10 Years

  16. A process of discovery about the process A Year long effort

  17. Timeline • Accelerating the Community Dialog • Defining the initial scope of EarthCube • New starting point for collaboration • SocialNetworkSite • EAGER/WKSHOP Phase • First DCL June 2011 July 2011 Aug 2011 Nov 2011 Dec 2011- present • FirstCharrette • WebEx Community Outreach • Unprecedented collaborations • Focused efforts to gather & share knowledge • Growing interest in EarthCube
