Dear Colleagues,<br>
As the Fall AGU abstract deadline draws near, we'd like to remind
you of the session:

space science data facilities around the world have been managing
digital data assets and making the information available to their
designated communities. These facilities, defined loosely as
organizations whose primary mission includes the receipt and
dissemination of digital data, have adapted themselves to
manage the changing data-driven demands and meet the evolving
requirements of their users. These challenges can be more
effectively met in today's data rich, yet often budget-limited
world through sharing of experiences, knowledge, and solutions.
This session solicits abstract submissions from Earth and space
science data facilities on how they have approached the Big Data
challenges of volume, velocity, veracity, and variety; from users
on their requirements for and experiences with data facilities;
and from the entire community on their actionable thoughts and
recommendations on how to effectively manage digital assets for
current and future generations.</span><br>
