From Space to ‘The Cloud’ NASA’s Sentinel-6 Michael Freilich broke new ground as the first NASA mission to archive a climate-monitoring satellite’s data into the “cloud” instead of a ground storage system. With its data in the cloud, Sentinel-6 makes the insights it collects more accessible and available for scientists and soon, the public at-large. While the data is also more accessible, this approach solves a grow...

 E-Mail Ziheng Sun, Research Assistant Professor, Center for Spatial Information Science and Systems (CSISS), and Daniel Tong, Associate Professor, Atmospheric, Oceanic and Earth Sciences, are set to begin a project to make artificial intelligence (AI)-based Earth scientific workflows more shareable, replicable, reusable, and scalable. They will do this by further developing the existing open-source workflow management system (WfMS), GeoWeaver, into a stable operational platform for NASAs Eart...
