Data and Information Assets

Standardized archiving of genetic data is essential for reuse in monitoring biodiversity and data syntheses.

Co-producing adaptable applications and trainings using USGS data to enhance data literacy in K-12 education.

Creation of a survey grade product to support Artemis mission operations and lunar surface science.

This toolkit will enhance 3DEP classification accuracy and automation, broadening its usability to external users

We will develop additional Survey123 functionality to improve field data collection and reduce error rates

Inter-agency, in-person, collaborative workshop with scientists and stakeholders to fill a major information gap.

We will develop a vulnerability assessment R Shiny web application and present to stakeholders. The stakeholder feedback will be summarized into a one page ‘lessons learned’ document that will assist researchers in designing effective climate change visualizations and an R markdown ‘quick start’ guide on R Shiny applications.

This project develops an open-source toolkit for the consistent, automated assessment of accuracy and cartographic quality of generalized geospatial data. The toolkit will aid USGS and other stakeholders with the development and use of multiscale data and with associated decision-making.

This project will combine the 117,000 orphaned oil and gas wells in the USGS Orphaned Well Dataset with groundwater quality data from the USGS National Water Information System (NWIS) to create a data product that can be used to analyze the interactions between orphaned wells, groundwater, and hazards to the environment.

We will make cutting-edge spectral analysis and machine learning algorithms available to remote sensing and chemical quantification communities, regardless of the user’s programming skills, by releasing, documenting, presenting, and developing tutorials for the Python Hyperspectral Analysis Tool.

We aim to develop a web-based game where players use human-assisted image segmentation to produce annotated “meditation drawing” images of surface water sites to accelerate the creation of machine learning imagery training datasets. The game will also public education and outreach opportunities.

In practice, e.g., in model applications, data are rarely complete without workflow code and workflows are often treated as software that include data. This project aims to understand current practice and recommend future practices that better fit the needs of reproducible workflows and models.
