The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Biological Infrastructure awarded a $566,575 Project Grant to the University of Wisconsin - Madison effective August 1, 2026, through July 31, 2028, under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074). The project will modernize the cyberinfrastructure of the Environmental Data Initiative (EDI), one of the nation's principal repositories for environmental and ecological research data. The deliverables include development of Phoenix, a cloud-native successor system that will replace EDI's legacy infrastructure with a modular microservices architecture implemented in Python and deployed using containerization, serverless computing, and cloud-native object storage technologies. The project will enhance data discovery, integration, analysis, and reuse capabilities for thousands of environmental and ecological datasets collected over decades. Key products include improved repository performance, reliability, security, and scalability; enhanced data interoperability; and AI-ready data resources that support scientific discovery, education, environmental stewardship, and evidence-based decision-making. By strengthening the nation's scientific data infrastructure and enabling more effective data sharing and reuse, this initiative will accelerate data-intensive and artificial intelligence-enabled research while advancing the nation's capacity to address complex environmental and natural resources challenges.Federal Grant Award Summary
