  • Data Journeys As an Approach for Exploring the Socio-Cultural Shaping of (Big) Data: the Case of Climate Science in the United Kingdom
    Data Journeys as an approach for exploring the socio-cultural shaping of (big) data: the case of climate science in the United Kingdom Jo Bates, University of Sheffield Paula Goodale, University of Sheffield Yuwei Lin, University for the Creative Arts Abstract The paper reports on a pilot study aimed at developing, and assessing the utility of, a data journeys approach for critically exploring the socio-cultural shaping of interconnected data infrastructures. At various points along the journey of a (metaphorical) datum - from production through processing, re-use and intersection with other data journeys - selected organisations and projects are brought into focus and empirical data about the socio-cultural values and practices shaping the life of data within that particular space are collected using a variety of qualitative data collection methods. These empirical data are then critically and thematically analysed in relation to the broader social context. This paper outlines the rationale for the data journeys approach prior to presenting initial findings from The Secret Life of a Weather Datum research project which applies the approach to explore the socio-cultural values and practices interacting with weather and climate data as they move through a variety of data infrastructures. The initial findings presented in this paper focus specifically on weather data production and climate science at Weston Park Museum Weather Station in Sheffield, UK; the Met Office (the UK’s national meteorological organisation); the Climatic Research Unit at the University of East Anglia, UK (a world leading climate research institute); and the Old Weather Project (a citizen science project involved in historical weather data recovery and rescue).
