Data Curation at NEES Claude Trottier Data Curator Site Operations Managers Workshop
Data Curation – Huh? • Society’s best known curators • Museum curators • Librarians • NEES Data Curator is some of both
Definition of Data Curation Preparation of NEES research project contents, and subsequent publications, for facilitated indefinite accessibility and research duplication
NEES Data Curator • Tool developer • Service Provider
NEES Data Curator • Service provider • Curate project research data • Assist PIs in developing their DASP • Conduct NEEScentral project research data reviews • Catalog project research data and NEES publications • Maintain the NEES Ontology • Maintain NEES project and publication access Web site and digital library
Data Curation Process • PI defines project in NEEScentral along with a Data Archiving and Sharing Plan (DASP) • Data curator reviews initial project definition, assigns initial state, and creates initial catalog entry • Researchers load data files into their local repository after experiments/trials and add metadata to files • Researcher with overall data management responsibility uploads data files and metadata to NEEScentral
Data Curation Process • Data Curator reviews uploaded data files and their metadata and assigns appropriate status on the experiment or trial • For experiment or trial data files that pass the review the Data Curator registers and catalogs them • Data Curator updates status for cataloged material • Data Curator notifies project contact of the status modifications on their experiment and trial data files

Data Archiving and Sharing Plan (DASP) • Identifies what files and file types a project will upload to NEEScentral • Identifies exceptions to standard file types • Identifies third party software to be used • Identifies custom software to be used • Contains a preliminary experiment schedule • Lists uploads and status changes in the form of a check off list • Will be online in NEEScentral under project
Earthquake Engineering Ontology • Controlled vocabulary and conceptual data model • Purpose • Promote consistent terminology throughout NEES • Source for definitions • Educational tool • Subject hierarchy for catalog

Project Data and Publications Public Catalog Entry Layout Title: Taiwan-Canada Hybrid Test on a Double-Skinned-Concrete-Filled-Tubular Bridge Type: Project NEES ID: NEES-2006-0137 Classified Under: Hybrid Test; Double Skinned Concrete; Tubular Bridge Description:Introduces a Taiwan-Canada transnational collaborative pseudo- dynamic (PsD) experiment of a multiple-span Double-Skinned Concrete-Filled Tube (DSCFT) bridge system, simulating its dynamic responses induced by a series bi-lateral ground motions. The PsD experiment of testing three DSCFT piers of the bridge system will be carried out at three geographically distributed laboratories over long distance.
