Description
Summary:This report provides a summary of the PolarGrid geospatial support activities carried out by Jun Wang from July 2010 to June 2012 while working in the Digital Science Center of the Pervasive Technology Institute and later in the Science Gateway Group of Research Technology. This document reports work supported by: • The National Science Foundation under award number 0424589 (Principal Investigator: S. Prasad Gogineni), which supports the Center for Research in Ice Sheet Sensing CReSIS. The University of Kansas serves as the lead institution for CReSIS, which is comprised of six additional partner institutions: Elizabeth City State University, Indiana University, University of Washington, The Pennsylvania State University, Los Alamos National Laboratory, and the Association of Computer and Information Science Engineering Departments at Minority Institutions. • Indiana University with the support of a major award from the Lilly Endowment for “The Pervasive Technology Institute,” through the Digital Science Center led by Geoffrey C. Fox. Some of the work reported here was provided as matching effort for and in support of NSF award 0723054 - MRI: Acquisition of PolarGrid: Cyberinfrastructure for Polar Science (Principal Investigator: Geoffrey Fox; Co-Principal Investigators: Linda Hayden, Craig A. Stewart, Marlon Pierce, Malcolm LeCompte) • Indiana University through its funding for the Research Technologies Division of University Information Technologies Services, particularly the Science Gateway Group led by Marlon Pierce. Research Technologies is affiliated with the Pervasive Technology Institute as a Cyberinfrastructure and Service Center.
