How TERN Data Infrastructure works
- 1. How TERN Data Infrastructure works Presentation by Tim Clancy TERN Director
- 2. Purpose • Build and manage data infrastructure to provide public access to terrestrial ecosystem data. • Facilitate open access to terrestrial ecosystem research data. • Promote the culture of data sharing and re- use in ecosystem community.
- 3. Instruments + Sensors Policy + Management Analysis + Synthesis Modelling Data Searching Data Sharing Data Curation + Publishing Data Storage Processing + Analysis Collection Methods • TERN’s infrastructure for ecosystem science
- 5. Data Management Challenges Data heterogeneity: wide variety from different domain • observation (human, in-situ sensor and satellite) Variety of scale: spatial • point, plot, site, local government, state and continental scale Temporal scale • Varies from monthly, yearly and long-term observational spanning several decades Data formats • CSV, NetCDF, Text description, Raster and Vector Metadata standards • EML, ISO 19115 or 19139, custom metadata. Common data exchange format • RIF-CS: feed to TDDP and ANDS RDA Data archival • Distributed across Australia Accessibility • Adhere to TERN Data licensing Policy and framework • Enable access to citable data through DOI

- 7. TERN data licensing policy 2.0 • The least-restrictive licence/terms for all data made available through TERN. • Data generated through TERN funding (“TERN data”) will be made freely and openly available by the relevant Facility, noting that: Users will be required to attribute the source of the data; and Justifiable conditions protecting sensitivities of data will be allowed. • Updated in October 2015.

- 20. TERN’s impact on Terrestrial Ecosystem research data sharing • Domain specific data management • Data and meta-entry tools • Metadata standards • Open standards for data delivery • Flexible licensing policy • Links to national research data catalog • Ability to provide citable data (with DOIs) • Scalable and replicable infrastructure
- 21. TERN’s impact on ecosystem science and management • Standardised data collection methodologies • New continental scale data products • Reduce duplication across jurisdictions • Improve knowledge for science to management • Promote collaboration and re-use of data • higher return of investment for funding agencies
- 22. TERN Data Publication Highlights Over 2000 data collections including: • Publish data from over 100,000 ecological sites; • Over 40 continental scale remote sensing data products; • Over 30 continental scale soil and landscape attributes data; • Coastal ecosystem datasets including national seagrass, beach observation and water quality; • Continental scale data on climate variables at 1 km spatial resolution; • Half-hourly time-series flux data from towers across Australia.
- 23. Moving forwards – sustaining long term science •Global shift to collaborative data , algorithms and participatory resources:
- 25. Methods 1 – BCC Virtual Lab
- 26. Methods 2 – CoESRA Pilot (Guru et al 2015)
- 27. Conclusion • Significant collection, collation of ecosystem data • Large institution databases are available on open access. • State government vegetation survey data • More details during the course of the day.
- 28. International Partners TERN is supported by the Australian Government through the National Collaborative Research Infrastructure Strategy and the Super Science Initiative
