Data Management for GIS

Type:: Media
Descripción/Resumen:: This video is the recording of the fourth webinar RDAP “Ask me Anything” town hall series entitled “Data Management for GIS projects”, held on February 26, 2020. It was jointly sponsored by RDAP and the University Consortium for Geographic Information Science (UCGIS). UCGIS was host this webinar. Webinar Description: With federal and other funding agencies wanting to ensure long term access to research output, data management planning for GIS projects has great importance. This webinar shares insight on lessons learned through GIS projects and highlights best practices for different steps in project exploration and creation. Also in this webinar, a geology researcher using GIS techniques and collecting geospatial data will explain how she communicated her use of best practices through a data management plan for a successfully funded NSF grant. Attendees will understand the importance of well-written data management plans, how to put those plans into action through implementing data management planning and reproducible research best practices, and how library engagement can help with data management planning. Presenters: Amy Koshoffer, University of Cincinnati; Jennifer Latessa, University of Cincinnati; and Paula Figueiredo, North Carolina State University Slide deck is also included. About UC–GIS: The University Consortium for Geographic Information Science (UCGIS) is a non-profit organization that creates and supports communities of practice for GIScience research, education, and policy endeavors in higher education and with allied institutions. We are the professional hub for the academic GIS community in the United States, with partnerships extending this capacity abroad.

Redesigning BrowseEverything

Type:: Generic Work
Descripción/Resumen:: BrowseEverything is a Gem which provides developers with an API and a set of user interface components for uploading files from cloud storage services and Samvera repository applications. As a core component, this Gem is actively maintained by members of the Samvera Community, and within the past year has had an interest group chartered in order to provide some set of guidance around its continued use and development. While previous releases of BrowseEverything have proven to be robust and sufficient in providing file upload functionality to Samvera applications (most notably, various releases of Hyrax), there exist a number of architectural changes for the codebase which have long been considered necessary in order to improve the user experience provided by the user interface components for the Gem. These will include standardizing the API in order to facilitate those who wish to develop additional drivers for currently unsupported cloud storage solutions. This presentation aims to outline the future proposed changes to the Gem itself, as well as to demonstrate the upcoming design changes for the user interface components. Insight and direction from attendees will be welcome, as we invite all interested parties in shaping the roadmap for this Gem. Of particular interest to: Design/UX people, Developers

Are scientist stereotypes eroding among students?: It's complicated, but there's something teachers can do

Type:: Article
Descripción/Resumen:: According to this poll, when asked to compare the prevalence of the stereotypical view that scientists are most likely to be white males to 10 years ago, 60% of science educators said that more students are aware that scientists can come from any demographic group. In the same poll, 55% of science educators said their students still see scientists as most likely to be males. [...]25% said that although more students (compared to 10 years ago) are aware that science can be a diverse field, they do not connect those opportunities with their own demographic group. Teachers can promote the idea that science provides a useful foundation for a variety of careers either in science or that build on science (ASPIRES 2013). [...]teachers can demonstrate the importance of learning science, regardless of career aspirations, by empowering students to weigh in, in an informed manner, on scientific questions important to their lives, such as those that appear in the news or government debates. [...]teachers might help their students better understand climate science by engaging them in the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center's Invader ID citizen science project where they would help identify invasive marine invertebrates in order to track changes in coastal environments.
