EarthCube Test Enterprise Governance WorkshopWashinton, DCMarch 18-20, 2014
WORKSHOP GOALSSeek guidance on a community-based plan to further cyberinfrastructure in the geosciencesAssess needs, visions, opportunities, and challenges to the EarthCube builders for the end-users and for professional societies Identify ways the EarthCube Commons can support these communities
NSF VISION AND GOALS

EARTHCUBE TEST ENTERPRISE GOVERNANCE PROJECT
An agile approach to design a system that catalyzes the field and works for the community
How do we link your tools, standards, and skills to create EarthCube?
Stakeholders (Assembly) –governance ideas, testing
Integrate stakeholder concepts -
crowdsource
Synthesize and
recommend to NSF
Establish Organizational
Demo
Facilitate convergence
on system design, data
standards
Evaluate results: basis for
long term organization

WHAT IS EARTHCUBE“GOVERNANCE?”
Not imposition of unwanted command and control
Resistance is futile!
Governance is finding solutions to specific problems, fostering
trust, reconcilinginterests, and coordinatingcommunities.
Providing a ‘backbone’ to help build community

EARTHCUBE COMMONS
Resolving the social, cultural, and organizational challenges to building infrastructure
EVALUATORS ROLESWorkshop facilitation
Meeting observation and periodic interventions (some built into the agenda and some in “real time” to respond to emergent dynamics) to ask questions that will generate reflection and learning on governance
Targeted facilitation support for the chartering of the new forums after the workshop
FORMATIVE EVALUATION

Day 1
Outcome: Understanding of each
other’s work and EarthCube(including hopes/fears)
Day 2 Day 3
Outcome: Ideas for how and why to
engage with each other and EarthCube and input into
EarthCube Commons
Overall Outcome:
Determine how short-term, intermediate, and long-
term goals align with the goals of EarthCube
Identify potential areas of collaboration and create a
plan of action
Provide input into a the approach for the EarthCube
“commons”
