Geoscience is now facing the huge potential enabled by the cyberinfrastructure, sensor network, big data, cloud computing, and data science. In this new era, what skills should geoscientists know and what actions can they take to foster new research topics? Are there already successful stories of data science in geosciences and what are the experiences? Can data science bring fresh ideas to geosciences, and vice versa? The chapters in this Special Paper present the latest progress and discoveries in both the methodology and technology of geoinformatics, and provide answers to those questions. The presented methodologies, technologies, and best practices will make this volume a useful reference with long-term impacts for data-intensive geoscience in the next decade and beyond.
