Nasa Framework

We created a Zenodo Openscapes Community! We want to share our work in a way that people can find it, use it, improve it, and cite it, or get credit for their contributions. For people who have participated in our programs like Openscapes Champions1, or Pathways to Open Science2, we want a robust way to add these to their CV as professional development. For contributors to our open educational resources, like the NASA Earthdata Cloud Cookbook3, we want them to get credit and visibility.

How coaching skills have made us better open data science mentors

By Tara Robertson, Stefanie Butland, Julie Lowndes in community

May 17, 2023

February through May 2023, Openscapes Mentors from across governments and academia came together for some hands-on learning and practice that had a profound effect on the way we will teach and lead going forward. We learned coaching skills that can help us as professionals – skills like listening rather than solutioneering, asking open-ended questions that empower people to find their own agency and meet their needs. This is a program designed and facilitated by Tara Robertson, a Certified Professional Co-Active and International Coaching Federation Associate Certified Coach.

Introducing pathway of cloud computing to the NASA user community

May 11, 2023

This post is by Xiaohua Pan, from NASA GSFC/Goddard Earth Sciences Data and Information Services Center (GES DISC). Pan participated in the 2021 Cloud Hackathon, led by NASA Data Center (DAAC) staff who are part of the NASA Openscapes Mentor community. Following this first hands-on introduction to NASA Earthdata in the cloud, Pan continued to experiment with transitioning her workflow to the cloud. Sharing her experience through posters, talks, and here in this blog post, she is a research scientist, a data curator, and a bridge-builder between data centers and the user community.

At the 2023 ESIP Winter Meeting, “Opening Doors to Open Science”, we held a session called “Better Science for Future Us: Openscapes stories and approaches for the Year of Open Science” with speakers from University of North Carolina (UNC), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Fisheries, California Water Boards, NASA’s National Snow and Ice Data Center, and NASA’s Physical Oceanography Distributed Active Archive Center. The goals of this session were to hear from and boost a diverse set of leaders from across the US government and academia to highlight open science in daily work, including peer-teaching, mentoring, and learning.

Whether it is with tech like Quarto and JupyterHubs or communities like R-Ladies, Ladies of Landsat, Black in Marine Science, and NASA Earthdata, it’s about welcoming folks to better ways of working and open science.

NASA Openscapes: efforts to support end users in the journey to the cloud

By Amy Steiker, Alexis Hunzinger, Luis Lopez, Catalina Oaida Taglialatela, Aaron Friesz and the NASA Openscapes Mentors in community

We are a mentor community across NASA Earth science data centers (Distributed Active Archive Centers - DAACs). We are co-creating and teaching common tutorials to support researchers as they migrate analytical workflows to the Cloud. We presented at several workshops and events this fall, including a 25-minute talk at NASA EOSDIS Systems Engineering Technical Interchange Meeting (SE TIM) that we reused at NASA’s Open Source Science Data Repositories (OSSDR) Workshop.

The why, what, and how of our NASA Openscapes cloud infrastructure: 2i2c JupyterHub and corn environment

The why, what, and how of our NASA Openscapes cloud infrastructure: 2i2c JupyterHub and corn environment I am a software engineer at the National Snow and Ice Data Center. Last month I gave a casual overview of our current cloud infrastructure set up with NASA Openscapes. The purpose was to share the why, what, and how of our setup with 2i2c JupyterHub and corn, to see how we can reuse what works and improve from other ideas.

In Spring 2022 we led our first NASA Openscapes Champions Cohort for research teams that work with NASA EarthData. This cohort is funded by NASA and part of our NASA Openscapes Framework project. For this Cohort, we co-led the cohort with the NASA DAAC mentors and we focused on shifting toward Open science, collaborative, reproducible practices to support research teams as they transition from the download model to the Cloud.
