Welcome Data Providers and Collection Organizers!

Your data-rich collections and services can find added value through the user-near applications you can build or find here in the Foundry. We are ready to work with you to create thick clients that can access, visualize, and analyze your data and models.

NSDL Projects with Data Collections or Services

Working with the Foundry can add new user tools to your project. Whether you are accessing earth data resources from a NASA DAAC or running a Fortran model, the Foundry has resources that your end users can apply to their learning situation. The Foundry uses the NSDL communications portal as its home, so you are already a neighbor. Come on over and share a cup of tea and a learning object or two.

DIgital Library for Earth System Education (DLESE)

The New Media Studio is a collaborative partner with DLESE, and we welcome the DLESE community to join in our efforts to extend the use of Earth data resources in the classroom and informal education. We have already added a DLESE lead application to our inventory. When released, the World Ocean Atlas Viewer will bring this collection of global ocean data to the DLESE (and NSDL) communities.

 

ESIP Federation

The New Media Studio, a part of the Earth Data Discovery Consortium ESIP, is actively working to bring ESIP Federation resources to the NSDL, and NSDL resources to Federation data users. With technologies that can access virtually all of the NASA data at NASA DAACS, the Foundry can contribute to a wide variety of user application development efforts.



Using Data in the Classroom

Using Data in the Classroom

This NSDL funded project, based at Carleton College, opens up a variety of topics and resources for data use in the classroom. The Foundry will be actively participating in this effort. Already, Foundry products are being made available through the Portal.
