Dear colleagues,

We invite you to join the half-day online workshop “Open Data in Geochemistry Part 1: Navigating the Present Data Infrastructure Landscape”https://conf.goldschmidt.info/goldschmidt/2023/meetingapp.cgi/Session/4637 on Saturday July 8 at 1-5pm CEST.

It will be a fully virtual workshop held in conjunction with the Goldschmidt conference in Lyon – although you do not need to register for the conference in order to attend the workshop!

Join us to hear from invited speakers Brenhin Keller and Sarah Shi, and to learn about the Astromat, EarthChem and GEOROC data systems: from sample registration to data publication to harvesting global data compilations.

Full details below and on the websitehttps://conf.goldschmidt.info/goldschmidt/2023/meetingapp.cgi/Session/4637.

For those interested, the related hybrid workshop “Open Data in Geochemistry Part 2: Managing, Publishing, and Archiving Imagery Generated by Geochemical and Cosmochemical Sample Analysishttps://conf.goldschmidt.info/goldschmidt/2023/meetingapp.cgi/Session/4537” will be held on Sunday 9 July at 9-4pm CEST.

Best wishes,
Marthe Klöcking, Lucia Profeta, Kerstin Lehnert and Leander Kallas


Open Data in Geochemistry Part 1: Navigating the Present Data Infrastructure Landscape | 4-HOUR ONLINE WORKSHOP
As data volumes increase across the Earth, Environmental and Planetary Sciences, global data infrastructures that synthesise existing datasets from disparate sources are a valuable resource for geochemistry and cosmochemistry research. At the same time, good data management and the publication of datasets are increasingly required by funding agencies and scientific journals. This workshop will showcase the variety of data services provided by the Astromat, EarthChem and GEOROC data systems: from sample registration to data publication to harvesting global data compilations.
Participants will gain hands-on experience using these services, instructed by the managers of Astromat, EarthChem and GEOROC. Attendees will be guided through current best practices for sample and data management, including the option to start their own sample registrations or data submissions. We will further explore the possibilities afforded by global synthesis databases with practical examples ranging from simple database queries using web-interfaces to code-based data harvesting and analysis for more advanced applications. No prior knowledge required: this workshop will be structured to appeal to a wide range of users, building from introductory material with a focus on basic functionality for new users to the latest features and more advanced applications for statistical or machine-learning approaches. We encourage specific problems suggested by attendees and participants will have the opportunity to get involved in the development of new features.

Guest Lectures & Tutorials:
MIN-ML: A Machine Learning Framework for Exploring Mineral Relations and Classifying Common Igneous Minerals
Sarah Shi, Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, Columbia University

A crustal perspective on geochemical data analysis and an introduction to Julia programming for statistics and computational science
Brenhin Keller, Dartmouth College
