Geological research is increasingly conducted by groups of researchers who work together to collect and analyze data. Data collection occurs both in the field and in laboratories. This project will modify an existing digital data system called StraboSpot to allow researchers to work collaboratively. These digital tools will be developed by working with an ongoing initiative studying all aspects of subduction zones, called SZ4D (Subduction Zones in Four Dimensions). The scientists working on SZ4D are already working together in groups, both in the field and with microscopes in the lab, to unravel both the basic science and issues of societal relevance associated with subduction zones (examples include megathrust earthquakes, strike-slip faults, and volcanoes). Through a series of community-based workshops, this project will build a useable collaborative environment for collecting and interpreting geological data. This collaborative environment will then be distributed to the entire geological community through the StraboSpot data system. This project will develop the cyberinfrastructure (CI) capability for researchers to work collaboratively while collecting and analyzing primary field and laboratory data. This process –group-level workflows – allows geological research as a community-based endeavor, with scientists collaborating within and across disciplines. New CI will be developed by modifying StraboSpot, an existing digital data system for geologic data that facilitates data input and storage. CI-enabled group-level workflows will transform the type and quality of geological science, leveraging the previous work on the StraboSpot system. The existing SZ4D (Subduction Zones in Four Dimensions) community, whose ambitious science agenda has a demonstrated need for integrative and collaborative workflows, will guide the CI development to meet their community workflow needs. The SZ4D group will facilitate the community interactions to create a community-driven workflow that is consistent with current needs and data discovery to communicate data within and across disciplines. Versioning, required to accommodate group-level workflows, will record the evolution of ideas and foster transparency in our science, critical to scientific outcomes. Three early career scientists and one post-doctoral fellow will be supported and receive training in cross-disciplinary collaboration.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

地质研究越来越多地由共同收集和分析数据的研究人员进行。数据收集既发生在现场和实验室中。该项目将修改称为Strabospot的现有数字数据系统，以使研究人员可以协作工作。这些数字工具将通过与正在进行的计划研究俯冲区的各个方面（称为SZ4D（四个维度的俯冲区）一起开发。从事SZ4D的科学家已经在野外和实验室中的显微镜组合工作，以揭示与俯冲区相关的社会相关性的基础科学和问题（示例包括巨型地震，走滑断层和火山）。通过一系列基于社区的研讨会，该项目将建立一个可用的协作环境，用于收集和解释地质数据。这个协作环境该项目将开发网络基础设施（CI）能力，以便研究人员在收集和分析主要领域和实验室数据的同时进行协作。这一过程 - 组级的工作流 - 使地质研究成为基于社区的努力，科学家在跨学科内部和跨学科进行了协作。新的CI将通过修改Strabospot（用于促进数据输入和存储的地质数据的现有数字数据系统）来开发新的CI。支持CI的小组级工作流将改变地质科学的类型和质量，利用先前的Strabospot系统上的工作。现有的SZ4D（四个维度的俯冲区域）社区，其雄心勃勃的科学议程表明需要综合和协作工作流程，将指导CI开发以满足其社区工作流程的需求。 SZ4D组将支持社区互动，以创建与当前需求和数据发现一致的社区驱动的工作流程，以在学科内部和跨学科中传达数据。用于容纳小组级工作流程所需的版本控制将记录我们的科学思想的演变和促进透明度的演变，这对科学成果至关重要。三名早期职业科学家和一名博士后研究员将得到支持并接受跨学科合作的培训。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并使用基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的影响评估审查标准，被认为是珍贵的支持。
