EarthCube Vision
• Transform the conduct of geosciences research with the next generation CI .
• Create effective community-driven cyberinfrastructure.
• Enable global data discovery within the geosciences
• Achieve interoperability and data integration across disciplines.

An alternative approach to respond to daunting science
and cyberinfrastructure challenges
EarthCube is an outcome
and a process
EarthCube: next
generation CI to transform
the conduct of geosciences

The process must• Engage all stakeholders: Geosciences end-users
Geosciences and CI facilitiesCI and Computer Science specialists
• EarthCube built on existing resources, understanding that different geosciences communities are not uniformly served
• Build EarthCube iteratively, with community input and assessment in yearly intervals

EarthCube Amendment I
March 26 deadline
Test Enterprise Governance1 award; ~2yrs; $2m-$3m
EarthCube Research Coordination Networks4-6 awards; 2yrs; $300k
Governance

Engagement
Test Enterprise Governance
Two stage process1. Facilitate the creation of a terms of reference engaging the appropriate
organizations and people
2. Demonstrate the terms of reference
Coordinate, organize and set priorities for a complex set of activities that will change over time

2 Outcomes Demo utility to geosciences communities within 24 months How does the approach extend and fit into “ecosystem”
Proposals must Have credible links to end-users geosciences communities—not just a subset Motivate how the solution might be broadly applied across ALL geosciences community

Next Building Blocks Stage
Initial integration of
current resources
Input from EC, end-users, architecture
Building Blocks
Serving more than one domain and recognized community organizations
Not all cyberinfrastructure projects are appropriate for this opportunity.
What do you do?
Several opportunities for those committed to participating in the spirit of EarthCube.

How Will It All Fit Together:Participation
Participation is a requirement for each award.
Managing this requirement Understand there is uncertainty Does your project organization accommodate meetings, other
interactions? How well do you understand end-users and the groups that serve
them?
