Treating gridded geospatial data as point data to simplify analytics

Gridded geospatial remote sensing (satellite) data has traditionally been stored in file-based multidimensional arrays to preserve the locality of data. Measurements from locations that are physically next to each other on earth remain next to each other in the arrays. Maintaining this locality is useful when running calculations like reprojection, but unnecessary for many other calculations. This talk will go through a real world example of a tool redesign at the Goddard Earth Sciences Data and Information Services Center (GES DISC), showing the advantages of using the data frame model for calculating summary statistics, where measurement proximity is unimportant.

Creating a knowledge graph to connect scientific publications and datasets for improving discovery of GES DISC’s data and services

The NASA Goddard Earth Sciences Data and Information Services Center (GES DISC) archives and distributes to the public hundreds of Earth Science data collections. These collections are used in research, resulting in thousands of scientific papers published each year. As new users come to GES DISC for the data, it is important for them to understand how these data were used in the prior research. For this we are creating the Knowledge Graph that connects research paper citation and the data collection metadata. The relationships created in the graph have potential for the Web applications that utilize this information to directly connect the paper research to the GES DISC datasets and services. We will demonstrate these relationships using the Web application prototype.

Development of a Knowledge Graph for Dataset Discovery and Identification at a NASA Data Center

The NASA Goddard Earth Sciences Data and Information Services Center (GES DISC) archives and distributes hundreds of Earth Science data collections to the public. These collections are used in research, resulting in the publication of thousands of scientific papers each year. As new users come to GES DISC for data, it is important for them to understand how prior research used the data. To help researchers, a knowledge graph (KG) was designed and implemented to connect publication citations with dataset metadata. The relationships created in the graph have the potential to allow the Web applications that utilize this information to directly connect the publication to the GES DISC datasets and services. These relationships are demonstrated using a web application prototype. In addition, the graph can also make connections between publications, datasets, and measurements based on the mentions of datasets and their attributes in the publications. To demonstrate this capability, a web application was created that takes the excerpt from the publication and returns a most likely dataset and measurement pairing, ranking the results based on how often these datasets and measurements were used in prior publications.

Automated Collection of Scientific Publications Linked to NASA Earth Science Datasets

NASA's Earth Observing System Data and Information System (EOSDIS) began dataset Digital Object Identifier (DOI) registration in 2012. The number of dataset DOIs registered as of January of 2023 exceeds 11,000. As the research community becomes aware of the importance of sharing data through Open Science and optimizing data reuse through Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability, and Reuse (FAIR) data management principles, datasets are increasingly being cited in scientific publications. When datasets are cited explicitly by DOI within published works, automated methods can be developed for collecting these published works from a variety of bibliometric sources. The coverage of the sources varies, so each source can collect citations that are only available within it. Using major citation databases such as Scopus and Web of Science, the Google Scholar search engine, the CrossRef Open Citation Index, and the dataset DOI registry DataCite, we present an automated workflow for dataset citation collection. By harvesting citations automatically, a citation library is created explicitly linking EOSDIS datasets to publications that cite them. Using Zotero, a free and open-source citation manager, we demonstrate how to access and browse this library by the tags indicating bibliometric sources, dataset DOI, and the dataset archive center. We also demonstrate temporary trends in the number of publications harvested from bibliometric sources.

Utilizing Google Scholar as a Bibliographic Resource for Publications Search

This study focuses on the automated search for publication citations for the Earth Observing System Data and Information System (EOSDIS) datasets. The research investigates the feasibility of using automated search methods to gather published works from various bibliometric databases. A comparison is presented, highlighting the differences in citation counts obtained from Google Scholar compared to established bibliographic databases. The study also introduces a methodology and an open-source tool for getting publication citations from Google Scholar, utilizing dataset DOIs and keyword searches. The findings contribute to understanding the reliability and effectiveness of Google Scholar as a source for dataset citation retrieval and provide researchers with a valuable resource for obtaining comprehensive citation data.

Enhancing Dataset Discovery With Knowledge Graph Link Prediction Techniques

● In the evolving landscape of open science, the ability to navigate and discover pertinent datasets is increasingly significant. This primarily hinges on the presence of detailed metadata, delineating the dataset’s content, and potential spheres of application. ● The GES DISC datasets are characterized by science keywords to enable dataset discovery in web search interfaces. ● A problem may arise where a dataset lacks a science keyword that it otherwise should have. ● Machine learning techniques such as link prediction can be used to detect these missing science keywords by estimating the probability of new links forming between dataset and keyword nodes.
