Dear VarSITI Participants

The provisional program of the “SCOSTEP-WDS Workshop on Global Data Systems for the Study of Solar-Terrestrial Variability” is given below. This workshop will be held at NICT (National Institute of Information Technology) in Tokyo on 28-30 September 2015. The submission of presentations has been closed on 21 August but the registration will be accepted by 15 September. Further information will be posted on http://isds.nict.go.jp/scostep-wds.2015.org/.

We will have a session entitled “Future Collaboration between SCOSTEP/VarSITI and WDS”, in the afternoon of the last day (30 Sep). We hope this session is a good starting point of collaborative activities between VarSITI and WDS on data, including long-term preservation, quality certification, common data/metadata formats, data publishing, capacity building in developing countries, etc. We welcome to receive your comments and proposals on this session. Inquiries on this Workshop should be addressed to: contact-scostep-wds(at)icsu-wds.org.
