The Azimuth Data Project is an online project to develop expertise in data sets for the environmental sciences, in data engineering, and in the mathematical foundations of data.
Eventually, The we aspire to “give back” to the scientific and educational community, by:Azimuth Data Project is a collaboration to develop expertise in data sets for the Earth sciences, and in the surrounding areas of data engineering and the mathematics of data.
We eventually hope to “give back” to the scientific and educational community, by:
Enhancing the value of existing datasets through further processing
Contributing to the development of open-source data storage, access and analysis platforms
Publishing selected datasets of educational interest
Like the Azimuth Code Project , this is an “umbrella” project – a loose framework within in which people can initiate specific projects projects. that interest them.
The data project can is be complementary symbiotic to with the code project. It can may provide generate goals needs for software to development, be developed by the code project. And it can provide data to be used inpute as to input for software models and simulators.
