Colorado State University was awarded a $297,959 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences. The grant falls under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which supports basic research in the atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences to strengthen the national scientific enterprise.
Specifically, the August 2021 award will fund the Colorado State University project "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: ELEMENTS: THE LROSE SCIENCE GATEWAY LIDAR/RADAR ANALYSIS IN THE CLOUD" through July 2024. The project aims to deliver a cloud-based science gateway for analyzing lunar laser ranging and radar data collected by instruments aboard NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter spacecraft. By providing open access to analysis tools and archived lunar observation data in the cloud, the science gateway seeks to advance understanding of the integrated lunar system through expanded collaboration between researchers.
