• Community-generated Best Practices & Conventions (e.g. Citation)
• Professional Development
• Outreach
Air Quality Community Catalog
ESIP AQ activities for GEOSS AIP 3, AQ Community Catalog WCS Server Software, Co-
developed, Shared
Activities for Users Catalog and help access to AQ-
relevant data and tools Foster collaborative projects and
global-regional integration

Governance of Conventions
Earth Data OpenSearch Conventions ESIP Discovery cluster
brought together OGC, CWIC, CEOS to agree on conventions
API covers > 93% of query needs according to ECHO metrics
Two-step searching is the burden of the API
ESIP/CWIC/CEOS best practices are dynamic
Adoption rate is very promising
Attribute Conventions for Data Discovery The ACDD is an ESIP
community convention for data discovery designed with netCDF3 and netCDF4 Classic in mind.
Originally, created by Unidata
ESIP Documentation Cluster established governance method to approve a new version – Version 1.3

ESIP Assembly endorsed in 2012 (Way ahead of it’s time)
Served as a model for NASA, NOAA, NSF, Group on Earth Observations, …
ESIP has been influential in Force11 and RDA, influencing directions based on this work
