“Earth and space sciences data are a world heritage” affirms AGU’s Data Position Statement. Sessions in this Data Track include incredible work within our community to support integration of our data, advances in big data, guidelines for our researchers to meet requirements of well-documented, preserved data by our funders and publishers, and the accessibility of data in a global network. The future of our science will be influenced by our ability to access and integrate data to support complex problems and results that inform and shape our future.
