What do you think of e-ScienceCity? E-Science projects are global collaborations that rely on international computing infrastructures. They link together continents and connect different disciplines with grids, clouds and high performance computers. But behind the technology you’ll find people making it all work people with very diverse backgrounds and interests.

Introduction - Data park
http://www.e-sciencecity.org/data-park
What do you think of e-ScienceCity? Big data, open data. Data vs. theory. Welcome to data park! Big Science today is all about big, open data or so we're told. But what does that mean exactly? Take a stroll around data park, and find out. Things are hopefully well signposted, but if you have trouble getting around, just tell the Park Ranger. For starters, you might want to take a look at Data in 30 seconds. Where you can find out about what data is. Some of the computer formats data can come in.
