Grounded in Trust: Data Ethics Empower Collaboration
Two of ESIP’s core values are Integrity and Collaboration. Building trust in data, systems, and products requires teamwork. At the center of this interplay are data ethics and the decisions individuals, teams, organizations, and even whole agencies make to ensure information systems are accurate and equitable.
The ESIP community wants data-driven decision making, which acknowledges that no data are collected, analyzed, or archived in a void. Likewise, the tools, software, and platforms used in the data life cycle also have social and cultural aspects. So even as Earth science data professionals tackle technical challenges, human elements remain present.
Join the discussions, demonstrations, and hands-on tool explorations at the next ESIP Meeting.

What are ESIP Meetings like?
The ESIP community gathers twice each year: In January for a virtual meeting and in July for a hybrid, in-person meeting. We focus on Earth science and its technical challenges.
ESIP meetings are open to anyone interested in Earth science data.
Many attendees are information technology professionals, teachers, and researchers. Their scientific fields include atmosphere, ocean, solid earth, ecology, data science, and social sciences.
Some attendees join monthly calls in ESIP’s Collaboration Areas.
