Scope The international society is increasingly agreeing with the idea of sharing scientific data openly between society and scientists, as stated in "The Future We Want" at RIO+20 2012, and the Open Data Charter agreed by G8 in UK June 2013. Data is also one of the most important multidisciplinary issues for JpGU. Significant research areas in The Union stand on research data which are substantially important in its sciences and cannot be obtained and/or be produced again. In international context, ICSU-WDS (World Data System) is proceeding for goals of open data sharing and long term preservation. DIAS (Data Integration and Analysis System) is under development as Japanese contribution to GEO/GEOSS. New actions are starting including Future Earth, re-forming global environmental science enterprises, and also Belmont Forum's discussion of e-infrastructure development whose targets include a support of Future Earth's data activity. Furthermore academic publishers like Thomson-Reuters and WDS started collaboration for data publication and data citation (use e.g. DOI or Digital Object Identifiers attached to datasets for citation in scientific articles). Discussions and exchanges of ideas, difficulties and challenges will be covered for future international data framework.
