Back to Partnership -- The following four applications have been approved by the Partnership Committee and are available for review and comment through November 24, 2012.


Community Modeling & Analysis (CMAS) Center at UNC - ESIP-III (primarily applications)

Application excerpt:
In partnership with EPA we shared the development of CMAQ and SMOKE models, These are state of the science air quailty and

emissions models.

Discinnet Labs - ESIP-II (primarily a research center)

Application excerpt:
Discinnet Labs provide a web 2. platform with collaborative processes letting earth science communities parameter, govern and

observe our their own communities shape, evolve and react to their own objects, with new scientific communication concepts

Application: Discinnet Labs


Geological Survey of Alabama - ESIP-II (primarily a research center)

Application excerpt:
Key to the mission of both agencies is developing, maintaining, and providing access to information related to the above activities.

Currently, the agencies maintain online databases of oil and gas well records and forms, drilling and workover reports, production history, engineering records, and core catalog information. We have been working with the AASG Geothermal project to add to the National Geothermal database, including cataloging available bottomhole temperatures for oil and gas wells throughout the state. Additionally, we maintain a GIS database of oil and gas well locations (surface and bottomhole when available), well unit and field boundaries, and infrastructure, and provide an ArcGIS MapService that contains geologic data.

JPL Data Systems and Technology Group - ESIP-II (primarily a research center)

Application excerpt:
We are constructing end to end data systems support for acquisition, delivery and end-user support for a snow and ice climatology,

as well as support for regional climate modeling and analysis of CORDEX data.

Knowledge Motifs, LLC - ESIP-III (primarily applications and education)

Application excerpt:
Knowledge Motifs LLC acts as a liaison between digital library and cultural heritage archive organizations and science DAACs and

archives. In that capacity, we apply digital preservation and data management methodologies and techniques used for social science and cultural heritage resources to science data, and transfer to each community what knowledge is useful.

Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) - ESIP-I (primarily a data center/archive)

Application excerpt:
BCO-DMO staff members work closely with NSF OCE funded investigators to manage, curate and serve data from their respective research programs. All data are ultimately made freely available and documented sufficiently to support re-use by research colleagues. BCO-DMO, in collaboration with colleagues at RPI/TWC has developed an ontology to describe ocean data.
