Hi, May be of interest to federal librarians, too; Enjoy the day, Emily ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Wild, Emily <[log in to unmask]> Date: Thu, Oct 8, 2015 at 9:22 AM Subject: USGS Data Lifecycle and Geological Society of America To: [log in to unmask] Hi, Last year at the annual Geological Society of America (GSA) meeting in Vancouver, as well as throughout this past year, I have received many inquiries on availability and access to USGS data now and in the future, i.e. the data lifecycle : http://www.usgs.gov/datamanagement/why-dm/lifecycleoverview.php This past spring, I mentioned the inquiries and interest from GSIS to my USGS colleague John Faundeen, the lead author of : The United States Geological Survey Science Data Lifecycle Model http://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2013/1265/ I know a lot of you still have questions and concerns, so please note, John will be presenting during our GSIS session on Tuesday at GSA: https://gsa.confex.com/gsa/2015AM/webprogram/Paper259586.html John is also presenting a poster on the data lifecycle model during the Geoinformatics session on Sunday, Nov 1 if you would like to stop by : https://gsa.confex.com/gsa/2015AM/webprogram/Paper259596.html In addition to John's presentation during our GSIS session, Carol and Stacie will also be presenting on behalf of the USGS, so there will still be a handful of us from the bureau to talk to and hopefully answer any some of your questions! To all presenters: Richard, Lori, John, Carol, Angela, Stacie, Shelley, Christopher, Sharon, Lura, Linda Z., and Linda M. - *Thank You* for submitting abstracts and your efforts putting together the materials - without you, we would not have a GSIS technical session and would miss out on great discussions about these topics within the profession that we can bring back to our library users! I look forward to all of your presentations! Make sure to preview the abstracts and think of questions to ask the presenters! GSIS session= T95. EVOLUTION OF THE DATA LIFE CYCLE https://gsa.confex.com/gsa/2015AM/webprogram/Session37991.html ~~~~~~~ If anyone wants to join me, I will be attending Marcia's talk "Deepwater Horizons: Lessons Learned for Better Disaster Preparedness" Nov 3, Tuesday (12:15 pm - 1:15 pm) - and then running to the GSIS technical session! http://community.geosociety.org/gsa2015/social-business/lectures/fyb Please note, I still use these sources often for research inquiries : U.S. Geological Survey Oil Spill Response (Deepwater Horizon) web site: http://www.usgs.gov/oilspill/ U.S. Chemical Safety Board (CSB) Macondo Blowout and Explosion (Deepwater Horizon) investigation web site : http://www.csb.gov/macondo-blowout-and-explosion/ Deepwater Horizon Blowout Animation: http://www.csb.gov/videos/deepwater-horizon-blowout-animation/ ~~~~~~~ Enjoy the day!
