Advanced information technology infrastructure is increasingly
being employed in the Earth sciences to provide researchers with
efficient access to massive central databases and to integrate
diversely formatted information from a variety of sources. These
geoinformatics initiatives enable manipulation, modeling and
visualization of data in a consistent way, and are helping to
develop integrated Earth models at various scales, and from the
near surface to the deep interior. This book uses a series of case
studies to demonstrate computer and database use across the
geosciences. Chapters are thematically grouped into sections that
cover data collection and management; modeling and community
computational codes; visualization and data representation;
knowledge management and data integration; and web services and
scientific workflows. Geoinformatics is a fascinating and
accessible introduction to this emerging field for readers across
the solid Earth sciences and an invaluable reference for
researchers interested in initiating new cyberinfrastructure
projects of their own.
