NASA’s Science Mission Directorate (SMD) seeks to develop a new Strategic Plan for Scientific Data and Computing to guide the evolution of the array of data and computing systems supporting research across the four science areas within SMD over the next five years. To inform this work, SMD is hosting this Workshop on Maximizing the Scientific Return of NASA Data on October 30th and 31st in Washington, D.C. The workshop will bring together thought leaders from academia, industry, and government to gather community input on a new, whole-of-SMD approach that leverages advances in information technology to enable groundbreaking scientific research.
