The Community Data Hubs prototype will model a networked infrastructure for storing and sharing community-generated environmental and climate data between communities, government, and researchers.
The Community Data Hub (CDH) prototype aims to increase data usability for environmental governance in two ways: (1) by providing a place for communities to make collective decisions about their own data while also (2) modeling complementary data governance structures for sharing between communities, researchers and government.
The goal is to demonstrate how socially networked open data streams can preserve important local values while enabling timely, relevant, and trustworthy decision-making by and with community members.
