This project will continue support and development of the OpenTopography cyberinfrastructure platform that provides web-based access to high resolution topography from airborne light detection and ranging (lidar), terrestrial laser scanning, radar, and photogrammetry at a range of scales in support of surface Earth process research, training, and education. The availability of high resolution digital topographic data and shallow water bathymetric data has been revolutionary for Earth and environmental sciences and engineering, contributing to the study of Earth surface processes (e.g., earthquakes and volcanos, landslides, riverine sediment transport), vegetation dynamics, and human modification of the Earth's surface. This project will enhance access to data and processing tools that improve efficiency and economic competitiveness, in addition to continuing to facilitate the use of OpenTopography resources in K-12, undergraduate, and graduate STEM education. The community-focused OpenTopography data facility will continue to grow the amount of high resolution topography data available to the community and expand data access pathways and processing tools, while also strengthening interoperability and ensuring scalability via cloud and high performance computing in order to meet the growing demands of the Earth science research and education community. OpenTopography will also continue its education and training efforts by conducting workshops and training courses along with building supporting tools like computational notebooks and reproducible workflows. These computations and analyses will support academic, educational, and applied use and reuse of the OpenTopography data holdings. Detailed usage metrics will be captured to demonstrate the impact of the resource and return on investment of the data.This project is jointly funded by the Geoinformatics and the Geomorphology and Land Use Dynamics programs in the Division of Earth Sciences.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.

该项目将继续支持和开发Opentography Cyber​​infradstructure平台，该平台可从机载的光检测和范围（LIDAR），陆地激光扫描，雷达和照相测量法提供基于Web的高分辨率地形，以支持表面地球过程，训练，训练和教育。高分辨率数字地形数据的可用性和浅水水域计的可用性在地球和环境科学和工程学方面具有革命性，这有助于研究地面表面过程（例如，地震和火山，山地滑坡，河流沉积物，河流沉积物运输），植被动态以及地球表面的人类修饰。除了继续促进在K-12，本科和研究生STEM教育中使用Opentography Resources，该项目将增强对提高效率和经济竞争力的数据和处理工具的访问。以社区为重点的Opentography数据设施将继续增加社区可用的高分辨率地形数据的数量，并扩展数据访问途径和处理工具，同时还可以增强互操作性并通过云和高性能计算来确保可扩展性，以满足地球科学研究和教育社区不断增长的需求。 Opentography还将通过开展研讨会和培训课程以及构建计算笔记本和可再现工作流程等工具来继续其教育和培训工作。这些计算和分析将支持Opentography数据持有的学术，教育和应用使用和重复使用。将捕获详细的用法指标来证明资源的影响和数据的投资回报率。该项目由地球信息学以及地球科学部的地球形态和土地使用动态计划共同资助。该奖项奖反映了NSF的法定任务，并通过评估基金会的范围和广泛的范围来评估支持，并通过评估了范围。
