This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Ocean Sciences provides $815,211 over 3 years to support the Marine Geoscience Data System (MGDS), the Global Multi-Resolution Topography (GMRT) synthesis, and the GeoMapApp (GMA) data visualization and discovery tool. These complementary data services ensure that marine geology and geophysics data are findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable (FAIR) to support disciplinary and interdisciplinary research and education. Key products and services include:

  • Curation of a coherent collection of seafloor and sub-seafloor data, along with data documentation and preservation services to support data publication, discovery, and re-use
  • Development and maintenance of the GMRT digital elevation model that integrates curated multibeam bathymetry with other publicly available elevation data
  • Provision of the GMA tool to enable map-based access and visualization of published and community-sourced geoscience datasets, including GMRT
  • Broader impact activities such as workshops for the user community and engagement of summer undergraduate students from minority-serving institutions

This award supports the NSF Geosciences program's mission to expand fundamental knowledge and understanding of the integrated Earth system through basic research in the atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences.
