SESSION 1 : IMPLEMENTING THE FAIR AND CARE PRINCIPLES FOR OCEAN SCIENCE AND SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

Moderator: Jan-Bart Calewaert

In this session we invite presentations that illustrate concrete implementations of the FAIR and CARE Principles across communities. These may include efforts to optimize, standardize, and/or harmonize digital assets (e.g. data, information products, software) or methods and practices in line with the FAIR and CARE principles.

SESSION 2 :COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT AND CAPACITY DEVELOPMENT IN DATA LITERACY

Moderator: Johanna Diwa

In this session we invite presentations illustrating efforts to improve digital literacy and engage diverse communities, including citizen scientists, local and indigenous people, scientists, and other ocean professionals and stakeholders. Presentations should highlight how such engagement is leading to capacity development in areas such as data collection, standardization, sharing, archiving, and transformation into actionable, user-oriented data and information products following the CARE principles. Case studies illustrating challenges and solutions from low income or least developed states, and communities with low digitization are especially encouraged.

DAY 2 : 21 MARCH 2023

SESSION 3: GLOBAL OCEAN DIGITAL ECOSYSTEM

Moderator: Pier Luigi Buttigieg

The ocean digital ecosystem, envisioned at IODC-I, will be fully machine actionable, meaning that when data or metadata are updated by one participating system, other independent and distributed systems will be able to react rapidly, automatically, and appropriately. This is the first step towards a global, deeply interoperable, integration on demand data space for the ocean. In this session we invite presentations that illustrate efforts to network independently governed digital systems and render them interoperable. Such efforts are central to creating a sustainable and scalable digital ecosystem. We also welcome concrete examples of how such systems interact or plan to interact with applications such as digital twins, cloud compute resources, and modelling solutions. Case studies are sought to demonstrate how the provenance of data is communicated to and used both within and across networked and interoperating systems.
