Back to Partnership -- The following applications have been posted for review by the Partnership Committee

February 2024 Class

NASA Science Explorer - Type II

In 2023, NASA invited the Astrophysics Data System (ADS) to expand it's focus into the Earth sciences, heliophysics, planetary science, biological sciences, and physical sciences, giving rise to the digital library portal known as NASA Science Explorer (SciX). Crafted to be as invaluable to Earth science as ADS is to astrophysics, SciX efficiently cross-links diverse bibliographic and data sources, fostering inclusivity and comprehensive scientific exploration. Offering researchers unparalleled access to a wealth of knowledge, SciX actively embraces Open Science principles, indexing NASA's PubSpace, Earth Science journals, preprints, meeting abstracts, theses, data sets, software, and more. Beyond being a comprehensive library resource, SciX empowers researchers with advanced citation metrics and data visualizations to pinpoint potential collaborators, establishing itself as a dynamic resource capable of supporting accessible and collaborative scientific research across all NASA science mission directorate areas.

-We are supporting capacity development in Tanzania by helping train community activists and youthmapper chapters to use technology to develop their communities. We are mapping rural Tanzania into OpenStreetMap and supporting rural groups and universities with remote sensing. We are working with organizations such as Selian Agricultural Research Institute (SARI, http://www.erails.net/TZ/sari/sari) in Arusha, Tanzania, and Africa Soil Information Service project (AfSIS, http://africasoils.net) to help farmers groups and others to access and use their data.

-===Environmental Data & Governance Initiative (EDGI) - ESIP-II ===
+===East Tennessee State University Department of Geosciences - Type II===
-EDGI is a home for accountability around federal treatment of environmental data and information. In addition to
-monitoring changes to federal sites and writing public comments, we provide reporting and information around the
-state of earth science coverage & influence in the U.S. federal government, and envision more archivally sound,
-distributed, and just futures for data in this sector.
