PANGAEA

Previously featured in The Scout Report in 2002, PANGAEA continues to be an extensive resource for earth and environmental scientists. This open access library aims to archive, publish, and distribute georeferenced data from earth system research. The vast majority of these datasets, collected from all around the world, are freely available for researchers and instructors to download and use. As of this write up, PANGAEA features 259 projects and well over 350,000 datasets. Visitors are invited to search this extensive collection by Topic (e.g. Oceans, Lithosphere, Chemistry, and Paleontology) or via Map. With this last feature, after selecting a continent, users may further narrow results by specific location, author, publication year, etc. Visitors can also conduct a keyword search. PANGAEA is currently maintained by a team of data managers, project managers, and IT specialists and is a member of the International Council for Science (ICSU) World Data System and the World Meteorological Organisation's (WMO) Information System.
