Abstract:

Scientific data are important strategic resources in the information age. Efficient management and wide circulation can critically enhance the value of scientific data resources. Rapid information technology developments and large investments in science and technology projects have led to an explosion in the number of scientific data resources, which poses a greater challenge to scientific data management. The transformation from industrial society to information society increases the importance of scientific data management, domestically and internationally. Many data management institutions and government departments promote robust scientific data management and sharing through the construction of data clusters, improvement of security measures, optimization of development concepts, and increased funding. This paper analyzes and summarizes the advanced experience of international scientific data management, based on a comprehensive survey of the concepts, policies, practices and achievements of scientific data management at domestic and foreign institutions. It proposes future directions and suggestions for the development of scientific data management in China. Recommendations for the future include the following: (1) Continuously standardize and improve the management of various scientific data resources to ensure a mechanism to improve the standardization level. (2) Strengthen deep mining of data resources to realize the transformation from data to information, knowledge, wisdom and decision-making. (3) Strengthen data science and technology talents training, implement data scientist programs from the government level, and provide talent support for scientific data management. (4) Broaden international cooperation channels, strengthen cooperation, promote the international influence of existing national science data centers, provide strategic guidance for the development and construction of data science in China, and build core competitiveness to enhance the comprehensive national strength in the information age.
