2. Moving into the Social Era
“We need to use business models that will allow
connected humans with shared interests and
goals to work together and to produce returns”
-Nilofer Merchant,
11 Rules for Creating Value in the Social Era

community of Earth
science data and
information technology
practitioners

5. Community Platform
Platform: A powerful ecosystem that scales, morphs and
incorporates new features “planks”, [community
members].
-Phil Simon,
The Age of the Platform
6. ESIP Transforms Earth Science
ESIP provides community coordination to support
interoperability at the data, systems, humans and
organizations level.
10. Wiki Workspaces
•The wiki workspace is an example of the right amount of
networking.
•The circle emphasizes that people are entering, participating
and leaving the space as interested or needed.
•Wiki workspaces act as an archive of both the product and the
artifacts needed to create it. Therefore collaboration can span
the time dimension
11. Community Data Sharing - „DataSpaces‟
Catalog - Find Dataset
Describe Dataset
Discuss Dataset
Earth Science Information Partners (ESIP)
• Semantic Wiki: Structured (RDF and
Unstructured Content
• Open, Standard Metadata - RDF
• Ready for Export/Harvesting by Registries,
Catalogs
12. Workspace Best Practices
•Collect distributed, but very related content and provide context
•Workspaces can be easily set up and evolve for the group
needs
•The open nature of the wiki allows unanticipated contributions
•Provides rich archive of artifacts: discussion, resources and
process the group took as well as the outcome
•Allow new users to easily enter the group and see the evolution
of the space

goals:
•Identify AQ Events from the background AQ
chatter
•Identify public concerns about AQ
20. Air Quality EventSpaces
EventSpaces are community workspaces on the ESIP wiki that are created
to describe the Event
Science Data
Social
Media
This collection of resources is tweeted through the @ESIPAQWG twitter
account every 10 tweets to encourage citizen participation and engagement
27. ESIP Commons for Hybrid Meetings
Pre-Meeting:
- Sessions are developed and scheduled
- Posters are submitted digitally
During Meeting:
-- Remote participation details are linked from rooms
-- Notes are captured in the ESIP Commons
-- Files are linked to the session pages
Post-Meeting:
-- Leaders and presenters get credit through citations
-- Proceedings is automatically generated with all material

28. Conclusion & Key Take-Aways
• Don‟t overdo the technology
• Make collaboration work for your “day job”
• What few things need to be the same, so that everything
else can be different?
She goes on to say that connected people with shared interests and goals can create “virtual circles to produce returns for any company that serves their needs.
