Dear Colleagues,

I again apologize for any cross-postings on this dark subject!

We would cordially like to invite you to provide your tales of nearly
dead data and their attempted revival, by submitting an abstract to:

Session ID: 26843
Session Title: IN018. Dark Data Revived! Data Rescue: New Discoveries
with Old Data
Section/Focus Group: Earth and Space Science Informatics

It only seems appropriate that we should be bringing back nearly dead
data in New Orleans. This session will highlight recent discovers made
using rescued data sets in an effort to expanding funding for future
efforts. More project are being started to recover Dark Data. These
historic records are often unique and there is no other source of
observations that cover those periods. What are the question or problems
that are trying to be answered with this data? The session will be
looking for projects/stories that succeeded, are in process and
especially those that failed, so we can all learn from those issues.
