Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The science of open data is focused on the publication of observations and results of scientific activities available for analysis, use, and reuse. Currently, there are international initiatives designed to facilitate open and innovative science that focuses on promoting open, secure, persistent, and robust scientific data. The Workshop on Data Science (WDS) was aimed at promoting the dissemination of knowledge and the exchange of experiences on open data science among Brazilian researchers and professionals with advanced international initiatives.
In this 5th edition of WDS (http://wds.poli.usp.br/wds5/), the mission of this event was to show the importance of large-scale open data management for scientific datasets related to atmospheric phenomena and to promote collaboration and share experiences between the Oak Ridge National Laboratory’s Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Data Science Group with the Brazilian Data Science Group, with the aim to design and develop cyber-infrastructure facilities to manage various observational and modeling data with a particular focus on atmospheric phenomena to the Brazilian scientific/academic community.
This Special Edition describes the main subjects of the 5th WDS related to the concepts, open standards, methods, and tools used by ARM for atmospheric data management and analysis and challenges in the context of the Brazilian atmospheric research community. The subjects discussed in this Special Edition are: end-to-end data flow, data quality, metadata, data preservation, publication, and analysis.
