The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $139,327 Project Grant to Vanderbilt University through the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070) to develop an open, cloud-based data and visualization platform called ADVISER (Advanced Cloud-based Data- and Visualization-Integrated Simulation Environment) to advance computational glaciology research and education. The project aims to (1) extend the existing ICEPACK software for glacier flow modeling to run on the ADVISER platform, (2) create data assimilation pipelines to incorporate remote sensing and other data into ICEPACK models, and (3) host workshops and hackathons to promote adoption of ADVISER and ICEPACK in the broader computational geosciences community. The project is intended to democratize access to high-performance computing resources and simulation software for glaciology research and education, especially for those with limited cloud computing expertise.
