SUMMARY:Resisting Contextual Collapse through the iPlaces Platform: Data T
 rusts, High-Performance Computing, and Digital Twin Technology to Empower 
 Local Communities
DESCRIPTION:Neil Davies (Gump South Pacific Research Station, University o
 f California; Berkeley Institute for Data Science, University of Californi
 a, Berkeley) and Erin Robinson (Metadata Game Changers, LLC)\n\nField Stat
 ions advance our understanding of the physical, biogeochemical, ecological
 , social, and economic interactions that constitute place. Society has sop
 histicated ‘open science’ (OS)(cyberinfrastructure and progress is being m
 ade toward digital twins of Earth systems; yet local communities often fee
 l disconnected from place-based scientific information and its benefits. O
 ne reason is that metadata describing samples/data collected in situ, incl
 uding legal and social metadata that are vital for their reuse, can be str
 ipped or lost in downstream applications. A novel publishing platform (iPl
 aces) creates a culture in which the common self-interest of all participa
 nts is clear to everyone. iPlaces enables field stations (and other anchor
  institutions) to publish project descriptions and related documentation i
 n their station-branded journal. Using familiar peer review processes, sta
 tion directors act as editors in a collaborative ecosystem that leverages 
 OS data services, while empowering local communities to enter a dialogue w
 ith research teams. Benefits flow up and down value chains as: (1) place-b
 ased metadata are systematically layered onto research projects, (2) globa
 l OS infrastructure automatically applies this metadata to downstream rese
 arch outputs, and (3) data trust services link outputs back to field stati
 ons and their communities. The power of this approach is discussed in a va
 riety of contexts.\n\nDomain: Chemistry and Materials, Climate, Weather, a
 nd Earth Sciences, Applied Social Sciences and Humanities, Engineering, Li
 fe Sciences, Physics, Computational Methods and Applied Mathematics\n\nSes

 fornia), and Sagar Dolas (SURF)\n\n
