The Integrated CZO Data Managment Project(CZOData) has developed a cyber-infrastructure to enable publication, sharing and integration of heterogeneous data collected at CZO sites.  New funding secured from NSF in the last 12 months has kicked off a new phase of development.

This seminar series is intended to help interested CZO investigators, students & staff understand how to use the exising cyber-infrastructure and provide input to new development efforts.  All are welcome.

CZOData Cyber-Seminars will be presented via WebEx every 7-14 days throughout the late winter and spring of 2014.  Screen-casts will be recorded and made available to the public.  

For additional seminars, see Data Cyber-seminars page.
