  2. Federation of Earth Science Information Partners (ESIP) ESIP fosters connections to make data matter. Data Centers Researchers Application Developers ESIP is a venue for connecting, collaborating and innovating across a broad-based, network.

  3. About the ESIP Federation • The ESIPcommunity is comprised oftechnical and domain experts across government, industry and academic sectors. • 125+ Member Organizations • 16% Data Centers • 42% Research • 41% Applications Developers • Volunteer-driven with member-led focus areas: • Air Quality, Climate Change Education, Data Preservation, Discovery, Earth Science Education, Energy, IT, Semantic Web, Water. • ESIP is managed by the Foundation for Earth Science with funding from NASA, NOAA and EPA.

  5. What ESIP Does • Technical Expertise Sharing and Networking • Wide Range of Tech Topics (e.g. Data Stewardship, Interoperability) • Science Domain Topics (e.g. Energy, Air Quality) • Education Topics (e.g. Climate Change, Data Usage in Classrooms) • Community Engagement • Participation in the Group on Earth Observations (GEO) • Professional Development (Data Management, Communication, Evaluation) • Outreach (ISRSE, NSTA, AGU) • Best Practices and Consensus Building

  6. ESIP and GEO • ESIP is a GEO Observer Org. and Participates in its Activities: • Architecture Data Committee • Architecture Implementation Pilots • GCI Coordination Team • User Interface Committee • ESIP Air Quality WG seeded GEO Air Quality Community of Practice • GEO Water Cycle CoP to partner with ESIP on GEO projects • GEO Science & Tech. Committee following ESIP citation work

  7. Facilitates Tangible Output: Air Quality Data Network Air Quality & Health Applications • ESIP AQ WG & GEO AQ CoP: • Int’ l participation • OGC standards (.. netCDF), CF Conventions, ISO meta • Share software code, best practices • AQ Data Network • Seven servers, three clients • AQ Community Catalog for finding • Application for EPA Except. Events AQ Data Network is still fragile, incomplete and inadequate for real apps, but demonstrates fine grained data networking with GEOSS infrastructure and process
