This project stimulates scientific interest in an existing facility and dataset developed in part by the National Science Foundation (NSF), Office of Polar Programs. This facility consists of 58 Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers located around the rocky coastline of Greenland, many of which have been collecting data nearly continuously for more than 10 years. This project fosters new and innovative research from these data by reaching out to science communities that include GPS experts and non-experts, or scientists that have not traditionally used GPS in their research. The investigators are increasing awareness of the facility and dataset and making the dataset more easily accessible. This project is important because it encourages innovative science from an existing large dataset that represents substantial investment of time, logistics, and funding by the NSF.The Greenland Geodetic Network (GNET) is currently jointly managed by the US and Denmark. This project is developing a Research Networking Activity aimed at encouraging innovative scientific research from the existing GNET dataset. The project specifically 1) broadens community awareness of, and engagement with, the GNET resource through the development of a data portal; 2) encourages new and innovative use of these data with the guidance of a scientific Steering Committee that includes researchers both internal and external to the GPS community; and 3) provides guidance for continued GNET research and network maintenance based on input from the Steering Committee and community feedback, obtained at international conferences. The objective of these activities is to make GNET data more accessible to GPS experts and non-experts, with the express purpose of encouraging the science community to pose and answer new questions associated with this unmatched dataset.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该项目激发了人们对现有设施和数据集的科学兴趣，该设施和数据集部分由美国国家科学基金会 (NSF) 极地项目办公室开发。该设施由位于格陵兰岛岩石海岸线周围的 58 个全球定位系统 (GPS) 接收器组成，其中许多接收器近 10 年来一直在连续收集数据。该项目通过接触包括 GPS 专家和非专家或传统上在研究中未使用 GPS 的科学家在内的科学界，促进利用这些数据开展新的创新研究。研究人员正在提高对该设施和数据集的认识，并使数据集更容易访问。该项目很重要，因为它鼓励利用现有大型数据集进行创新科学，这些数据集代表了 NSF 投入的大量时间、后勤和资金。格陵兰大地测量网络 (GNET) 目前由美国和丹麦共同管理。该项目正在开发一项研究网络活动，旨在鼓励利用现有 GNET 数据集进行创新科学研究。该项目具体是 1) 通过开发数据门户扩大社区对 GNET 资源的认识和参与； 2) 鼓励在科学指导委员会的指导下对这些数据进行新的和创新性的使用，该委员会包括 GPS 界内部和外部的研究人员； 3) 根据指导委员会的意见和国际会议上获得的社区反馈，为持续的 GNET 研究和网络维护提供指导。这些活动的目标是让 GPS 专家和非专家更容易获取 GNET 数据，其明确目的是鼓励科学界提出并回答与这一无与伦比的数据集相关的新问题。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并已通过使用基金会的智力优点和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，认为值得支持。
