NGGDPP promotes preservation and accessibility to geoscientific data and samples by providing financial and technical support to state geological surveys and the U.S. Geological Survey. The Program's ReSciColl (formerly the National Digital Catalog) provides public access to collections of documents, datasets, photographs, samples, and other geologic materials available for research.
