Dear colleagues,

We cordially invite you to submit an abstract to the AGU-ESSI session
IN045: Semantics for the Discovery, Access, and Integration of
Geoscience Data.

IN045: Semantics for the Discovery, Access, and Integration of Geoscience Data
Session Webpage: https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm15/preliminaryview.cgi/Session8812
Submission begins here: Submit an Abstract to this Session

Session Description:
Semantic technologies, by adding machine readable meanings to data,
raise the functionality of existing data platforms to a new level and
create possibilities for more efficient interactions between users and
data sources, as well as among data sources. Various
semantics-relevant community efforts and standards, such as ESIP,
Research Data Alliance, EarthCube, CODATA, schema.org, DataCite, and
DCAT, to name a few, promote the discovery, access and integration of
scientific data. Geoscience, a domain with abundant sources, types,
and formats of data, has made significant progress in deploying
semantic technologies in recent years. The session welcomes all works
relevant to semantics, including and not limited to vocabulary
building, ontology engineering, data archival and publication, and
multi-source data integration.

Conveners:
Xiaogang Ma, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute
Tom Narock, Marymount University
Robert A Arko, Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory
Steve Hughes, NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory

Kindly note that the deadline for 2015 Fall AGU meeting submissions is
Wednesday, August 5th. Feel free to email questions to the conveners
about the session. Thanks a lot.

Kindest regards,

Marshall
