Dear Colleague, We are organizing a one day workshop in Chicago on June 9, 2016 on environmental data commons and data sharing. There will be plenty of time for informal discussions and interactions. There will be sessions on the environmental commons, services for environmental commons, environmental data commons applications, the NOAA Big Data Alliance, and interoperability of environmental commons, clouds, and repositories.
