1) The document discusses the need for better connection between scientific literature, data, and data analysis procedures on the internet. Specifically, it argues that published data and code are needed to fully reproduce and understand research findings.
2) It proposes that the field of upper atmospheric research is well-suited as a testbed for improving data sharing and reproducibility. This field has a culture of open data and existing data infrastructure that could be built upon.
3) For literature to be fully reproducible, metadata, identifiers, code, and data sharing infrastructure need to be more openly connected and accessible online along with the published research.
1. The document discusses the need for cooperation between metadata databases and author identifiers to support data-intensive science in upper atmospheric research.
2. It proposes using domain-specific metadata connected to DOIs and ORCIDs to enable data publication, citation, and reuse by providing detailed, fine-grained metadata about things like geolocation and instrumentation.
3. An example implementation is a metadata database for ground-based observation data developed by IUGONET that includes analysis software for integrated access and analysis of shared data.
1) JudasFX is a new data visualization and analysis software developed as an alternative to SPEDAS (Space Physics Environment Data Analysis Software), which is IDL-based and has licensing limitations.
2) JudasFX is developed using JavaFX, which allows it to run on multiple platforms like Linux, Windows, and Mac OS without licenses.
3) One goal is to recreate an ionospheric conductivity model called Igrf12 completely in the free JudasFX software instead of IDL. This will improve cross-platform compatibility and access.

The document discusses building a metadata database using DSpace to allow cross-searching of observational databases distributed across research institutes in Japan. It customized DSpace to store the complete metadata format as content while inserting select metadata fields into the database for searching. An OpenSearch interface was implemented to allow analysis software to query the metadata database, download associated observational data using URIs in the metadata, and perform integrated analysis across different datasets.
