  1. WK 13 - How to Prepare Ecological Data Sets for Effective Analysis and Sharing 2:00 PM-5:00 PM August 1st, 2010

  2. Workshop Team • Robert Cook, Oak Ridge National Laboratory • Viv Hutchison, US Geological Survey • Stephanie Hampton, National Center for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis • Tammy Beaty, Oak Ridge National Laboratory • William Michener, University of New Mexico • Bruce Wilson, Oak Ridge National Laboratory • Suresh SanthanaVannan, Oak Ridge National Laboratory • Mark Schildhauer, National Center for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis

  3. Workshop Goal Provide guidance on data management practices that investigators should perform during the course of data collection to improve the usability of their data sets

  4. Cycles of Research – An Information View Data Center/ Archive Discover, analyze, and extract information Multi-Domain Observations Planning • Cycles of Research • “An Information View” Publications Review Analysis and modeling Measurements Original Observations Planning Problem Definition Research Objectives Courtesy of Raymond McCord, ORNL

  5. Benefits of Good Data Management Practices Short-term • Spend less time doing data management and more time doing research • Easier to prepare and use data for yourself • Collaborators can readily understand and use data files Long-term (data publication) • Scientists outside your project can find, understand, and use your data • You get credit for archived data products and their use in other papers • Sponsors protect their investment
