This presentation was given as a keynote during the CAML session at the SCAR open science conference in Buenos Aires, August 2010. Its an introduction to Polar data sharing, focusing on SCAR's Marine Biodiversity Information Network (www.scarmarbin.be) and the new Antarctic Biodiversity Information Facility (www.biodiversity.aq). Both these projects aim at offering free and open access to raw scientific data pertaining to Antarctic biodiversity.

Polar data sharing

The Antarctic Treaty

« In order to promote international cooperation in scientific investigation in Antarctica, as provided for in

Article III (1c) of the Treaty, the Contracting Parties agree that, to the greatest extent feasible and practicable: […]

Scientific observations and results from Antarctica shall be exchanged and made freely available. »

Thursday 5 August 2010

Our vision:Data are discoverable, open, linked, useful, and safe.

Discoverable

Data should be accessible soon after collection (online wherever possible) in a discovery portal such as the Global Change Master Directory.

Mark Parsons [THANKS]

Thursday 5 August 2010

Open

Open Data is a philosophy and practice requiring that certain data are freely available to everyone, without restrictions from copyright, patents or other mechanisms of control.—Wikipedia

Mark Parsons [THANKS]

Thursday 5 August 2010

Linked

The term Linked Data is used to describe a method of exposing, sharing, and connecting data [using] the Web.—Wikipedia

Mark Parsons [THANKS]

Thursday 5 August 2010

Useful

Data from different projects, disciplines, and data centers should be easily understood and used in conjunction with each other in standard tools and analysis frameworks

Data should be well described so to be useful for a broad audience.

Mark Parsons [THANKS]

Thursday 5 August 2010

Interoperable

Metadata and data should be readily interchangeable between different polar data systems to enable data discovery across multiple portals.

Mark Parsons [THANKS]

Thursday 5 August 2010

Safe

Safe from hackers, from obsolescence, from undocumented change, from loss, and from the ravages of time.

Mark Parsons [THANKS]

Some initial recommendations for scientists and data centers

• Investigators should publish their IPY data immediately.

• The scientific community needs to recognize the value of good data through citation, consideration of data publication in promotion and tenure review, and by training young scientists in data management.

• Data centers must develop partnerships with other data centers in other countries and other disciplines to enhance data accessibility and interoperability.

• Data centers should partner with their scientific community to explicitly meet their needs, provide easy submission tools, and make the data more useful and integrated with other data.

Food for thought• its a time of rapid change, need for timely change

in our behavior regarding data publication: NORMS

• IPY/CAML’s virtual legacy

• save the whales? save the birds? SAVE THE DATA FIRST! [in as many contexts as possible]

• flying across disciplines is exciting!

• information networks are organic

• this is just a beginning!Thursday 5 August 2010
