Data Collaborations Across Boundaries
There are many good stories about data collaborations across boundaries. We need more. We also need to share the lessons each of us has learned from collaborating with parties and communities not in our familiar circles.
By boundaries, we mean not just the regulatory borders in between the nation states about data sharing but the various barriers, readily conceivable or not, that hinder collaboration in aggregating, sharing, and reusing data for social good. These barriers to collaboration exist between the academic disciplines, between the economic players, and between the many user communities, just to name a few. There are also cross-domain barriers, for example those that lay among data practitioners, public administrators, and policy makers when they are articulating the why, what, and how of "open data" and debating its economic significance and fair distribution. This session aims to bring together experiences and thoughts on good data practices in facilitating collaborations across boundaries and domains.
The success of Wikipedia proves that collaborative content production and service, by ways of copyleft licenses, can be sustainable when coordinated by a non-profit and funded by the general public. Collaborative code repositories like GitHub and GitLab demonstrate the enormous value and mass scale of systems-facilitated integration of user contributions that run across multiple programming languages and developer communities. Research data aggregators and repositories such as GBIF, GISAID, and Zenodo have served numerous researchers across academic disciplines. Citizen science projects and platforms, for instance eBird, Galaxy Zoo, and Taiwan Roadkill Observation Network (TaiRON), not only collect data from diverse communities but also manage and release datasets for research use and public benefit (e.g. TaiRON datasets being used to improve road design and reduce animal mortality). At the same time large scale data collaborations depend on standards, protocols, and tools for building registries (e.g. Archival Resource Key), ontologies (e.g. Wikidata and schema.org), repositories (e.g. CKAN and Omeka), and computing services (e.g. Jupyter Notebook). There are many types of data collaborations. The above lists only a few.
This session proposal calls for contributions to bring forward lessons learned from collaborative data projects and platforms, especially about those that involve multiple communities and/or across organizational boundaries. Presentations focusing on the following (non-exclusive) topics are sought after:
Support mechanisms and governance structures for data collaborations across organizations/communities.
Data policies --- such as data sharing agreements, memorandum of understanding, terms of use, privacy policies, etc. --- for facilitating collaborations across organizations/communities.
Traditional and non-traditional funding sources for data collaborations across multiple parties; sustainability of data collaboration projects, platforms, and communities.
Data workflows --- collection, processing, aggregation, archiving, and publishing, etc. --- designed with considerations of (external) collaboration.
Collaborative web platforms for data acquisition, curation, analysis, visualization, and education.
Examples and insights from data trusts, data coops, as well as other formal and informal forms of data stewardship.
Debates on the pros and cons of centralized, distributed, and/or federated data services.
Practical lessons learned from data collaboration stories: failure, success, incidence, unexpected turn of event, aftermath, etc. (no story is too small!).

TwitterBackground: Scientific research in the 21st century is more data intensive and collaborative than in the past. It is important to study the data practices of researchers –data accessibility, discovery, re-use, preservation and, particularly, data sharing. Data sharing is a valuable part of the scientific method allowing for verification of results and extending research from prior results. Methodology/Principal Findings: A total of 1329 scientists participated in this survey exploring current data sharing practices and perceptions of the barriers and enablers of data sharing. Scientists do not make their data electronically available to others for various reasons, including insufficient time and lack of funding. Most respondents are satisfied with their current processes for the initial and short-term parts of the data or research lifecycle (collecting their research data; searching for, describing or cataloging, analyzing, and short-term storage of their data) but are not satisfied with long-term data preservation. Many organizations do not provide support to their researchers for data management both in the short- and long-term. If certain conditions are met (such as formal citation and sharing reprints) respondents agree they are willing to share their data. There are also significant differences and approaches in data management practices based on primary funding agency, subject discipline, age, work focus, and world region. Conclusions/Significance: Barriers to effective data sharing and preservation are deeply rooted in the practices and culture of the research process as well as the researchers themselves. New mandates for data management plans from NSF and other federal agencies and world-wide attention to the need to share and preserve data could lead to changes. Large scale programs, such as the NSF-sponsored DataNET (including projects like DataONE) will both bring attention and resources to the issue and make it easier for scientists to apply sound data management principles.

Abstract This paper analyzes how the extension of the self in the practice of collaborative consumption in the system of sharing of bicycles of Pernambuco takes place. It has a qualitative approach, collecting the data through participant observation on Bike PE platforms and individual unstructured interviews with 24 project users. Social-hermeneutical discourse analysis was used to analyze the data. The possibility of cycling provided by Bike PE represents the opportunity to reaffirm and build certain identity elements, especially those related to the social and collective aspects that stimulate joint and/or interactive actions. Thus, two elements constitute the development and extension of identity in the collaborative practice of Bike PE users: the relational self and the influencing and idealistic self. Many users were shown to already possess a bicycle, indicating that the consumer is willing to experiment new business models without abandoning previous consumer practices such as the acquisition of a good. With a multifaceted identity, individuals want to increase their possibilities of extension and construction of self through access and possession, and the use of the referred product is a central element in the construction and extension of identity, regardless of whether the object used being their own or not.

Data Collaborations Across Boundaries
There are many good stories about data collaborations across boundaries. We need more. We also need to share the lessons each of us has learned from collaborating with parties and communities not in our familiar circles.
By boundaries, we mean not just the regulatory borders in between the nation states about data sharing but the various barriers, readily conceivable or not, that hinder collaboration in aggregating, sharing, and reusing data for social good. These barriers to collaboration exist between the academic disciplines, between the economic players, and between the many user communities, just to name a few. There are also cross-domain barriers, for example those that lay among data practitioners, public administrators, and policy makers when they are articulating the why, what, and how of "open data" and debating its economic significance and fair distribution. This session aims to bring together experiences and thoughts on good data practices in facilitating collaborations across boundaries and domains.
The success of Wikipedia proves that collaborative content production and service, by ways of copyleft licenses, can be sustainable when coordinated by a non-profit and funded by the general public. Collaborative code repositories like GitHub and GitLab demonstrate the enormous value and mass scale of systems-facilitated integration of user contributions that run across multiple programming languages and developer communities. Research data aggregators and repositories such as GBIF, GISAID, and Zenodo have served numerous researchers across academic disciplines. Citizen science projects and platforms, for instance eBird, Galaxy Zoo, and Taiwan Roadkill Observation Network (TaiRON), not only collect data from diverse communities but also manage and release datasets for research use and public benefit (e.g. TaiRON datasets being used to improve road design and reduce animal mortality). At the same time large scale data collaborations depend on standards, protocols, and tools for building registries (e.g. Archival Resource Key), ontologies (e.g. Wikidata and schema.org), repositories (e.g. CKAN and Omeka), and computing services (e.g. Jupyter Notebook). There are many types of data collaborations. The above lists only a few.
This session proposal calls for contributions to bring forward lessons learned from collaborative data projects and platforms, especially about those that involve multiple communities and/or across organizational boundaries. Presentations focusing on the following (non-exclusive) topics are sought after:
Support mechanisms and governance structures for data collaborations across organizations/communities.
Data policies --- such as data sharing agreements, memorandum of understanding, terms of use, privacy policies, etc. --- for facilitating collaborations across organizations/communities.
Traditional and non-traditional funding sources for data collaborations across multiple parties; sustainability of data collaboration projects, platforms, and communities.
Data workflows --- collection, processing, aggregation, archiving, and publishing, etc. --- designed with considerations of (external) collaboration.
Collaborative web platforms for data acquisition, curation, analysis, visualization, and education.
Examples and insights from data trusts, data coops, as well as other formal and informal forms of data stewardship.
Debates on the pros and cons of centralized, distributed, and/or federated data services.
Practical lessons learned from data collaboration stories: failure, success, incidence, unexpected turn of event, aftermath, etc. (no story is too small!).
