Unidate hosted this NSF workshop with the goal of helping shape the development of EarthCube and
help in building an infrastructure that makes it easy to
integrate and use data from disparate sources, allowing
investigators to perceive linkages that today are obscured
by incompatible formats or simple lack of knowledge that the
data they need for their investigations indeed exist. The
overarching goal was to work toward a scientific ecosystem in
which "data friction" is reduced, and data transparency and
ease-of-use are significantly increased.

Unidata, in conjunction with the Universidade de Sao Paulo's Instituto de Astronomia, Geofisica e Ciencias Atmosfericas (IAG) hosted a Latin American Data Workshop on August 21-23, 2008. The goals of the workshop were to foster scientific partnerships for exchanging knowledge and expertise among U.S. and Latin American educators and researchers; promote greater Latin American participation in free-and-open sharing of Earth System data; inform Latin American workshop participants of the wide variety of data available through the Abstract Data Distribution Environment (ADDE) and Thematic Real-time Environmental Distributed Data Services (THREDDS) servers (TDS); and inform Latin American workshop participants of the suite of freely-available analysis and display applications available through Unidata.

NOAA and the Unidata Program sponsored a workshop to develop Community Standards for Unstructured Grids on October 16-17, 2006 in Boulder, Colorado. The goal of the workshop was to agree upon a provisional profile (i.e. metadata standards) for unstructured grid data in netCDF based upon an evaluation of the existing candidate profiles.

The Advancing Domain Vocabularies Workshop focused on data discovery, representation, and (tentatively) visualization engines. The outcome of this wroskhop was a key implementation of the MMI-sponsored research and development, and provided tools for scientists to use in searching for and working with data.

LEAD Kickoff MeetingSeptember 29, 2003 - September 30, 2003
The purpose of this meeting was to address the fundamental IT research challenges needed to create an integrated, scalable framework for the Linked Environments for Atmospheric Discovery (LEAD) project. The goal of LEAD is to create an integrated and scalable framework for identifying, accessing, preparing, assimilating, predicting, managing, analyzing, mining, and visualizing a broad array of meteorological data and model output, independent of format and physical location.

The OPeNDAP/NVODS/DODS Technical Working Conference targeted those either who were using the OPeNDAP Data Access Protocol (or DAP), developing software related to the DAP, or were potentially interested in making use of the DAP in their data system work. The workshop focused on specific technical issues related to the continuning evolution of the DAP.
