For over 20 years, ESIP meetings have brought together the most innovative thinkers and leaders around Earth observation data, thus forming a community dedicated to making Earth observations more discoverable, accessible and useful to researchers, practitioners, policy makers, and the public. The theme of this year’s meeting is Leading Innovation in Earth Science Data Frontiers.

Calling all research data publication stakeholders: researchers, repositories, publishers, and funders… We need a workflow model!

Increasing effort is being directed toward streamlining the activities surrounding research data publication. Yet, we still do not have a complete understanding of the full data publication process, including the requirements and workflows of individual stakeholders, and the touch points between them. Reaching consensus on stakeholder needs and processes is a first step in addressing challenges associated with data sharing, management, publication and citation, and in better aligning these workflows to facilitate Open Science.

This session seeks to engage all stakeholders involved in the data publication process to help articulate and document the workflow(s) between the geoscience researcher, repository, and publisher; to identify inherent challenges in these existing workflow(s); and to collaboratively develop and recommend strategies for solutions to these challenges. We welcome and encourage all stakeholders in the data publication landscape to participate. Initial outcomes of the RDA Plenary 16 Earth, Space, and Environmental Sciences Interest Group’s session on this topic will be presented for discussion and refinement. This session is relevant to the ESIP Collaboration Areas for COPDESS, Data Stewardship, Discovery, and Research Object Citation.

How to prepare for this session: consider your own particular stakeholder's experiences in the data publication workflow.
