Council of Data Facilities (CDF)
What we do: Connect data facilities, especially those that include Earth science datasets, and provide a collective voice for CDF members.
Why we do it: Geoscience data standards and stewardship require collaboration and communication.
The Council of Data Facilities (CDF) is a federation of existing and emerging geoscience data facilities that serves as an effective cyberinfrastructure foundation for domain and interdisciplinary earth system science.
CDF has served as an important organization for data facilities under EarthCube. With the end of EarthCube, we see ESIP as a synergistic place to continue the CDF work.
Join CDF every third Wednesday of the month at 3 pm Eastern.

ESIP stands for Earth Science Information Partners and is a community of partner organizations and volunteers. We work together to meet environmental data challenges and look for opportunities to expand, improve, and innovate across Earth science disciplines.
- In January and July, we hold two ESIP Meetings
- Each month, our 30+ collaboration areas hold Zoom gatherings, called telecons, scheduled on the Community Calendar
- The ESIP Lab pulls in technical expertise in Earth science data and information to support innovative pilot projects
- Also, we fund Community Fellows each year to mentor early career researchers
- ESIP offers awards and peer recognition for Earth science data professionals and the Raskin Scholarship for graduate students
