The University of Kansas Center for Research Inc., a non-profit organization, received a $434,415 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Office of Integrative Activities under the Geosciences CFDA program. The award, effective from December 1, 2023 to November 30, 2026, supports the integration of two complementary geoscience data platforms, Macrostrat and Strabospot, to build a multiscale community-led ecosystem for crustal geology research. The project aims to enhance the ability to track and model the Earth's crustal framework by linking Macrostrat's geologic mapping and stratigraphy capabilities with Strabospot's field data collection tools. This integration will increase the accessibility and utility of geological data, benefiting hundreds of thousands of geologists and enthusiasts who rely on these platforms annually. No subawards are planned under this grant.
