Characteristics of a 5D World
•

•
Time and place are no longer barriers to participation and interaction
Access is open to specialists and non-specialists alike
Information is the primary driver for progress
Possibilities expanded by new capabilities, resources, mechanisms
The world is flat -Thomas Friedman
The flat world is expanding - Anonymous
More room for innovation (Emergence)
New spaces for learning and discovery (Web is Expanding)
Expanded opportunities for collaboration and interaction
Greater capabilities for research and education
NSF Goals
To catalyze the development of a system of science and engineering data
collections that is open, extensible and evolvable.
To support development of a new generation of tools and services facilitating
data acquisition, mining, integration, analysis, and visualization.
For SEAS not DataFed
Here are a few quotes resonate with my thinking:

Charles Vest, MIT on the idea of Meta University : "What we are
observing is the early emergence of a Meta University -- a transcendent,
accessible, empowering, dynamic community-constructed framework of
open material and platforms on which much of higher education worldwide
can be constructed or enhanced."
Our School could be active member of the community that constructs the
frameworks and populates it with open materials and platforms..
NSF Strategic Plan for Data, Data Analysis, and Visualization
“… a vision in which science and engineering digital data are routinely
deposited in well-documented form, are regularly and easily consulted and
analyzed by specialists and non-specialists alike, are openly accessible
while suitably protected, and are reliably preserved.”
In atmospheric chemistry and pollution, we are already a major center for
openly accessible global-scale information resources. Together, we could
do and show much more.
