     3This is an ongoing by Joe Hourclé and Todd King to see if we can manage to 
     4reach agreement on terms used to discuss data systems in our efforts 
     5for interoperable cross-discipline systems.  It is focusing on informal 
     6language, not formal language that might be used in published papers or 
     7standards such as OAIS.

     11== Abstract == 
     12 
     13Virtual Observatories and other unifying data systems have been forming in nearly every science discipline. As is common in any field, language evolves to discuss the concepts, but it may evolve differently when communities don’t intercommunicate. In order to discuss our organizations and data systems across disciplines, we must have a clear language to be able to communicate information about our systems and the content within our systems. We present common terms and definitions used in earth and space informatics when discussing science archives, search systems, services and other data system components. One benefit of a common vocabulary is to help those who implement science data systems to easily recognize other efforts with a common purpose. A common vocabulary is also useful in identifying analogous terms in other fields such as computer science and information science.
