Enhancing the discoverability of agricultural geospatial data products is vital in facilitating decision-making processes, nurturing collaboration, propelling rapid advancements in research and innovation, and championing the values of open science. This workshop introduces an exhaustive tutorial, designed to boost the discoverability and accessibility of UAV-based phenotyping data through the NSF CyVerse Data Commons platform. Despite the platform's robust capabilities, user engagement is often limited by the complexity of the data publishing procedures. To address this issue, we used a forage hyperspectral dataset from our latest high-throughput phenotyping research on maize silage yield and nutritive values as the basis to create a clear, step-by-step guide for publishing extensive agricultural geospatial data on CyVerse. With this tutorial, we aspire to augment the discoverability of geospatial data products, stimulate collaborative research, and hasten progress in sustainable agricultural practices.
