Call For Papers | |||||||||||||||
Introduction
Understanding environment conditions and trends requires information; this information is usually generated from observations, experiments and simulations. A better management and usability of open environmental data is crucial, not only to retrieve large amounts of data, but also to cater the issues like data privacy and trust, uncertainties, quality control, interoperability, visualization, and management policies. This workshop will bring together communities dealing with open environmental data infrastructures (e.g. private and public sectors) to discuss relevant requirements, practices and experiences. These aspects will not only be addressed in terms of a technological perspective, but also in terms social and legal perspectives. This workshop will cover the following topics in the context of environmental sensing: • Interoperable data management infrastructures • Sensor and Model Web, Semantic Sensor Web • Linked Environmental Data • Data quality and uncertainty assessment • Provenance, privacy and trust of data • Data analysis, query and visualization • Legal and social frameworks for data access and sharing • End-to-end open data flow management • Open data/metadata standards, best practices • Relevant tools and applications Important Dates Paper Submission: October 30, 2013 Authors Notification: November 15, 2013 Camera Ready and Registration: November 27, 2013 Paper Submission Prospective authors are invited to submit papers in any of the topics listed above.
