Environmental data sources ~ Hosted at international organizations & networks
· The European Space Agency (ESA), Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), and National
Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) have combined their resources, technical knowledge,
and expertise to produce this Earth Observing Dashboard, which strengthens our understanding of
global environmental changes and other societal challenges impacting our planet.”
Global Earth Observation System of Systems (GEOSS)
· Hosted by Group on Earth Observations (GEO)
· Key site for environmental data: “...an online map-based user interface which allows users to
discover and access Earth observation data and resources from different providers from all over
the world.”

Environmental data sources ~ Other
ARtificial Intelligence for Environment & Sustainability (ARIES)
· “We want to revolutionize data-intensive science for decision-making by ensuring that scientific data
and models are Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable (FAIR). In the digital age, where
connectivity and collaboration are paramount, we envision a future where individuals, businesses, and
governments have access to a fully connected information landscape, enabling collaborative efforts to
address pressing environmental and sustainability challenges.”
· “...a web-based data visualization tool that will allow everyone to quickly and easily create rich
interactive visualizations with their own data. You can then share your interactive visualizations
with others by embedding them in websites, blogs or sharing via Facebook or Twitter. We're focused
on building the most exciting and engaging destination for statisticians, and computer scientists in
the world.”
Environmental Data Initiative (EDI)
Measuring Progress
· "...an interactive online tool suggesting green economy indicators for policy-making."
· Click on "Articles by topic," which leads to an array of environmental and other topics.
· “...a dynamic platform that leverages technology, data, and human networks to bring unprecedented
transparency about the planet right now.”

Conferences
ECODIVE (Evaluating Conferences for Diverse Engagement)
· "...goals are to evaluate how conferences are serving ecologists and environmental scientists, and how
future conference design in these fields can best meet the needs of diverse organizations and individuals.
Our research investigates how virtual and hybrid conference formats can facilitate access and inclusion."
Science communications
· "...where graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, and science professionals come together
to write easy-to-read, compelling summaries of recent, cutting-edge research papers in
environmental science to make them accessible to non-experts. We want to share our passion
for research with all non-scientists who are interested to learn more about the environment:
This ranges in scale from identifying science problems and solutions in cities to explaining the
complex environmental challenges facing our planet as a whole.”

Environmental data sources ~ Old & out-of-date
· Last updated 2019
· Website project by teacher and writer Jeff Hays
· Contains several environmental categories
· Last update is 2019
· “...a non-profit project founded in 2001. Its mission is to provide non-specialists with clear and
strictly factual summaries of complex scientific consensus reports on health, the environment and
sustainable development.”
