NASA’s Science Discovery Engine: An Interdisciplinary, Open Science Data and Information Discovery Service 

<p>NASA&#8217;s Science Plan includes a strategy to advance discovery by leveraging cross-disciplinary opportunities between scientific disciplines. In addition, NASA is committed to building an inclusive, open science community over the next decade and is championing the new Open-Source Science Initiative (OSSI) to foster that community. The OSSI supports many activities to promote open science including the development of an empowering cyberinfrastructure to accelerate the time to actionable science. One component of the OSSI cyberinfrastructure is the Science Discovery Engine (SDE). The goal of the SDE is to enable the discovery of data, software and documentation across the five SMD divisions including Astrophysics, Biological and Physical Sciences, Earth Science, Heliophysics and Planetary Science. The SDE increases accessibility to NASA&#8217;s open science data and information and promotes interdisciplinary scientific discovery. In this presentation, we describe our work to develop the Science Discovery Engine in Sinequa, a Cognitive Search capability. We also share lessons learned about data governance, curation and information access.</p>
