There are different levels of sharing and collaboration within NEEShub
The Project WarehouseA centralized data repository for managing, sharing, storing, and publishing research data

Data
Every project is created with the same structure
This provides consistency between projects and
aids in the navigation of project information
The Project Warehouse
Project Experiment Trial Repetition
A project represents an entire research project, which consists of a suite of tests and associated simulations
Each test is set up as an individual experiment
Within each experiment there are several trials or separate events for which data is measured
If the same trial is performed more than once, it may have multiple repetitions
The Data ModelThe model governing the organization of data within a project

Trials
The Project WarehouseA centralized data repository for managing, sharing, storing, and publishing research data
For each repetition within a trial, there are four data folders that are automatically created1. Unprocessed data (data collected by Equipment Site)
Raw voltages, channel names, potentially non-standard formats (e.g., binary files)
2. Converted data Measurement units, instrument names
3. Corrected data Filtering, baseline corrections, removal of bad data
4. Derived data Corrected data plus values derived from measured data
Types of Sensor DataRemember the data within the Project Warehouse is PUBLIC
ASCII files recommended for all sensor dataPut all channels into a single ASCII file
Experiment Documentation◦ Metadata fields within the Project Display◦ Experimental Setup Report placed in
Documentation folder Sensor Measurement Data
◦ Unprocessed◦ Converted◦ Corrected◦ Derived
Data RequirementsData cannot be shared without proper documentation
Uploaded by Researcher
within 6 months of
experiment
Uploaded by Researcher
within 6 months of
experiment
Uploaded by Site within 1-month of experiment
Minimum data requirements: unprocessed data and sensor data in engineering units!
The Project Editor◦ Edit project and upload files through web interface
The Project Explorer for NEES (PEN)◦ Efficient upload/download for bulk file management◦ Files organized offline and then uploaded
inDEED Data Viewer◦ Facilitates browsing/viewing/investigating data within
Warehouse without download◦ Use inDEED data file format

Project Warehouse ToolsThe nuts and bolts
Today we will have hands-on exercises to demonstrate these tools
Definition of Enhanced◦ Metadata fields in Project Display are complete
(including drawings, material properties)◦ Project includes at least one visualization of data◦ inDEED is currently the only visualization tool that
allows for viewing data within the NEEShub without download
Enhanced ProjectsProjects with Data Visualization
Curation is requested by researcher at the experiment level◦ Should initiate within 6-months of an
experiment Digital Object Identifier (DOI)
◦ Assigned at experiment level after curation
Data Papers in EERI EQ Spectra◦ New manuscript type focused on
describing datasets
CurationAn important process to ensure long-term re-use of data
Collections of NEES and non-NEES data with a common theme
Data contained in figures in articles published by ACI Structural and Materials Journals and the Journal of Earthquake Engineering
Databases
Currently databases must be generated manually with earthquake engineers working together with NEEScomm IT team
Currently developing an auto-contribute feature (DataStore)
What databases are you interested in seeing?
Do you have a database you would like to contribute?
Databases
Groups can be:◦ Public, restricted, or private
Purpose◦ To facilitate conversation, collaboration, and data
sharing between group members ◦ Discussions, wiki posts, and files are in one
central location available to all group members◦ Generate a webpage for your project
Features◦ Wiki, messaging, discussion boards, and file
sharing via the dropbox
Group SpaceAn easy way to share content and conversation
A group is automatically created for all projects created in the Project Warehouse◦ Group name has Project in title
Membership is controlled by project team members listed in the Project Editor
Project Groups
Group Space/OverviewAn easy way to share content and conversation
About section can be expanded into a web page for your project
SynchroNEES◦ A graphical user interface
for transferring files Local PC to/from NEES
Group workspace Local PC to/from NEES
Personal workspace
Group Space ToolsThe nuts and bolts
Contribute tools and resources to share with the community
Submit tickets to get problems/issues resolved
Submit wishes about things you would like to see on the NEEShub
