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研究人员小组共同收集和分析数据，该项目将修改名为 StraboSpot 的现有数字数据系统，以便研究人员能够协同工作。将通过与一项名为 SZ4D（四维俯冲带）的持续研究项目合作开发。从事 SZ4D 工作的科学家已经在现场和显微镜下进行分组合作。该项目将通过一系列基于社区的研讨会，揭示与俯冲带相关的基础科学和社会相关问题（例如巨型逆冲地震、走滑断层和火山）。然后，该协作环境将通过 StraboSpot 数据系统分发给整个地质界，从而开发网络基础设施 (CI) 功能，以便研究人员在收集和分析原始现场时进行协作。这个过程——小组级工作流程——使地质研究成为一项基于社区的工作，科学家们可以通过学科内部和跨学科的合作来开发新的CI，这是一个现有的地质数据数字数据系统，可以促进数据的传输。支持 CI 的组级工作流程将利用现有的 SZ4D（四维俯冲带）的先前工作，改变地质科学的类型和质量。社区雄心勃勃的科学议程表明需要集成和协作的工作流程，SZ4D 小组将指导 CI 开发以满足其社区工作流程需求，从而促进社区互动，以创建符合当前需求和需求的社区驱动的工作流程。用于在学科内部和跨学科之间交流数据的版本控制将记录思想的演变并促进科学的透明度，这对三名早期职业科学家和一名博士后研究员至关重要。支持并接受跨学科培训该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
