Session Proposal: Data and Information Services and Research for interdisciplinary Research and Applications in Earth Science (AGU25)

IN019
Data and Information Services and Research for interdisciplinary Research and Applications in Earth Science

Session ID#: 250287

Session Description:
As technologies (such as cloud and AI/ML) evolve, integrating heterogeneous Earth science data in a user-friendly environment is essential for enabling interdisciplinary  activities (e.g., wildfire management) and servicing a broader audience. For researchers and users of applications, accessing interdisciplinary  datasets from multiple data repositories remains a challenge. This year is our 8th year organizing this popular session to keep us stay informed with the latest R&D by sharing our data, services, experiences, and research and at the same time, provide a forum for discussion and an opportunity for collaboration.  This session seeks presentations to describe your Earth science data and information services and research for supporting interdisciplinary activities, including existing tools or data services, ongoing work/project/tool development, user needs, challenges and barriers (e.g., interoperability), lessons learned, experiences and suggestions with existing tools or services, and ideas/concepts for future data and information development and infrastructures.
