This $429,750 National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will support the development of a prototype platform, the Tephra Information Portal (TIP), to improve curation, integration, sharing, and discovery of Earth science data. The lead institution, Concord University, will collaborate with partners to build upon existing cyberinfrastructure and integrate geoinformatics resources to create a centralized catalog and access point for curated tephra (volcanic ash) data. The project aims to make Earth science data more findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable (FAIR) to enable new computational and data-driven research and foster next-generation discoveries. By using the tephra research community as a test case, the project will develop sustainable frameworks for FAIR data practices that can be adopted by other specialized scientific communities. The award, which runs from September 2024 to August 2027, includes plans for subawards to support the project's objectives.
