Dear Colleagues,



(Apologies for multiple postings)



The AGU 2019 Fall Meeting will be held on 9-13, Dec. 2019 in San Francisco,
CA. As you know, the submission deadline is July 31.



We would like to welcome your submission to the following session.



*Session ID:* 82569
*Session Title:* IN035 - Making Data Uncertainty Information FAIR:
Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable
*Section/Focus Group:* Earth and Space Science Informatics

*Session Description:*

Data providers and repositories disseminate data leading to complex volumes
of metadata and documentation accompanying their data. Users are
increasingly becoming aware of uncertainty information, but not all users
know where to find it, as it can be found in documentation, metadata, or
only be available in a private repository. Without uncertainty information
made publicly available for specific data, users are likely to be less
informed about critical data in question, leading to reduced usability and
capacity for decision making, as well as potential for inconsistencies
regarding the perceived data validity. This session seeks to discover
solutions (from conceptual prototype to operational) that intend to make
uncertainty information for all varieties of Earth science data Findable,
Accessible, Interoperable, and Re-usable. Following these principles, we
are targeting open-source solutions and of varying types, such as: web
tools/services, documented practices/policies, metadata standards, data
recipes, software packages, community repositories/hubs, cloud-based
analytics, etc.



*Primary Section/Focus Group: *Earth and Space Science Informatics

*Primary Convener*:  *David Moroni, *Jet Propulsion Laboratory

*Conveners*:

   - Hampapuram Ramapriyan,  NASA Goddard Space Flight Center
   - Ge Peng,  NC State University and NOAA’s National Centers for
   Environmental Information (NCEI)
   - Robert R Downs, Columbia University of New York



*Final Abstract Submission Deadline:* 31 July, 11:59 P.M. ET
