How is DataONE changing behaviors? Is it saving researchers time in managing data, and allowing for reproducible studies? Can we see research that would otherwise not be possible? Is it supporting the scientific process by providing public trust and reproducible science?<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m still thinking about how to measure the internal process impacts, and it is tied into thinking about the DataONE community. DataONE\u2019s purpose is to support a framework for providing open Earth observational data. In doing so it has bought together a large number of people to solve issues in sharing and managing data and communicating the importance of open data. It is useful to consider the impact on people connected to the project through the cross-fertilization of ideas bought about by DataONE\u2019s existence, and the enhanced skill sets of those associated with the project.<\/p>\n<p>The data life cycle diagram has been worked on as well \u2013 all coming together for the final week!<\/p>\n<p>Tanner, S.
