The World Data System (WDS) is an Interdisciplinary Body of the International Science Council created by its 29th General Assembly in 2008. Its predecessor, the World Data Center (WDC), was founded in 1957. The mission of WDS is to support the long-term vision of ICS, to provide long-term management and equal access to scientific data, data services, products and information, to promote compliance with mutually agreed data standards and practices, and to provide mechanisms for promoting and improving data access, among a range of disciplines such as natural sciences, social sciences and humanities, and to adopt "data sharing principle" to promote its objectives.
In the “WDS Asia-Oceania Conference, 2017” held in Kyoto, Japan, 2017, we reached to a common understanding that the continuation of our effort is important to build a collaborative network of data repositories in developing regions. Along this line, WDS Asia-Oceania Conference 2019 will be held in Beijing, China, on 7 - 8 May 2019. This conference is hosted by the Institute of Geographic Sciences and Natural Resources Research, Chinese Academy of Science.

We are pleased to invite you to be part of the World Data System Asia-Oceania Conference (WDS-AO) 2019 by presenting your relevant work related to data. All submissions will be compiled and made available to attending participants. Abstracts should be submitted through the conference website (http://www.wds-china.org/meeting201905.html), before February 15, 2019. Authors will be notified of all abstract acceptances no later than February 20, 2019.
To help in preparation of abstracts, we post the list of categories of papers as follows.
(1) Data acquisition – Barriers and efforts
(2) Practices for preservation and provision of quality-accessed research data
(3) Infrastructures for international and collaborative activities on data.
(4) Application of advanced technologies to data management
(5) Enhance data standard or best practice for data management
(6) Promotion of Open Science and Open Data activities (including data publication)
(7) Data driven science cooperation and sustainable development (e.g., UN SDGs)
(8) Supporting early career researchers on data-oriented activities
Note that all authors who will submit an abstract are invited to submit a full paper to WDS-AO 2019. Some of the selected papers will be encouraged to expand their contribution into Data Science Journal.
