The summit seeks to build a sustained community of practice—and a center of influence—for open science standards, governance, and capacity across the state.Organized around three key themes—Discovery & Access | Policy & Governance | Methods & Applications—the event will explore how Wyoming can make research data more findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable (FAIR). As artificial intelligence and data-driven methods transform the research landscape, the summit will focus on enabling high-quality, well-curated, and ethically managed data to serve as the foundation for innovation, policy, and decision-making.Through panels, workshops, and facilitated discussions, participants will examine strategies for breaking down data silos, improving data stewardship, and safely sharing public data for greater transparency and impact. By bringing together faculty, students, government agencies, and industry leaders, the Summit aims to align Wyoming’s open science efforts with national and global best practices—fostering collaboration, accessibility, and AI-ready research across disciplines.A Pre-Summit Event on January 12, the Wyoming Geospatial Community Forum, hosted by WyGISC and WYGEO, will spotlight geospatial data, applications, and policy issues relevant to Wyoming’s geospatial professionals and decision makers. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events9/banners/4c806fa0-be1d-11f0-95c4-05f756d64625-rimg-w1200-h528-dcc2c1be-gmir.jpg Monday - January 12th***PLEASE NOTE: AGENDA IS TENTATIVE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE?: 08:00 AM - 09:00 AMWorking Breakfast?: 09:00 AM - 09:20 AMIntroduction and Opening Remarks - Jeff HamerlinckInfo: Dr. Jeff Hamerlinck will be providing opening remarks for the Geospatial Community Forum along with a goal for the overall day. ?: 09:20 AM - 09:30 AMBreak?: 09:30 AM - 12:00 PMMorning Discussions, Panels, Working GroupsInfo: Discussions possibly centered around: authoritative data & definitions, standards for geospatial data, data discovery and sharing, public/private partnerships, funding a geohub, real-world governance examples, support for local governments, troubleshooting roadblocks, and more.?: 12:00 PM - 01:00 PMLunch?: 01:00 PM - 04:00 PMAfternoon Discussions, Panels & Working GroupsInfo: Discussions possibly centered around: authoritative data & definitions, standards for geospatial data, data discovery and sharing, public/private partnerships, funding a geohub, real-world governance examples, support for local governments, troubleshooting roadblocks, and more.?: 04:00 PM - 05:00 PMSummary & RecommendationsInfo: Summarizing the events and discussions from the day, and a goal of providing possible recommendations for solutions.?: 05:30 PM - 07:30 PMEvening ReceptionTuesday - January 13th***PLEASE NOTE: AGENDA IS TENTATIVE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE?: 08:00 AM - 09:00 AMWorking Breakfast?: 09:00 AM - 09:15 AMOpening Remarks?: 09:15 AM - 09:30 AM"Unconference" Session OverviewInfo: Defining the "Unconference": how to introduce your own topic(s), how to vote for topics, and what to take away from it.
