Help support and exceed research and education goals in the geosciences
A CRITICAL NEED FOR TRUSTED GEOLOGIC MAPS AND SPATIAL DATA
Research and education are the cornerstones of the best academic institutions. Within geoscience departments, publishing original research and educating students to become the next generation of geologists are key outputs. Publishing thought-provoking and reputable research brings valuable grant funds and prestige, while producing successful, well-informed students attracts greater talent to the university.
To accomplish these goals, geoscience departments need access to the latest and most accurate geologic information–and it must be easily discoverable and actionable in order to support research and education goals. Unfortunately, this is often hindered by a lack of relevant and readily accessible information. Too often, researchers and students rely on out-of-date approaches for finding geologic data, and decrease their productivity and research output.
GEOLOGIC MAPS AND DATA AT THE FINGERTIPS OF STUDENTS AND RESEARCHERS
With Geofacets, researchers, students and faculty supercharge their research and discovery capabilities. Hundreds of thousands of geologic maps and articles extracted from peer-reviewed publications that are easily searchable on a spatially-based platform help researchers to access geologic insights much faster and more efficiently than other sources. Maps are actionable and can be integrated into presentations, research papers and analysis software so that students and researchers can better inform analyses and interpretations.
• Essential geologic knowledge – Hundreds of thousands of scientific maps aggregated from trusted geologic publications
• Easy discovery of maps and other spatial data – Intuitive search and discovery features help researchers and students find critical information quickly
• Seamless workflow integrations – Maps are downloadable and can be integrated into analysis tools
WHY GEOFACETS
Accelerates the researcher’s workflow
• Geoscience researchers save time and increase productivity by searching for maps aggregated from multiple trusted sources in one platform, and they discover data the way geoscientists think–spatially.
Supports and enhances research publishing goals and output
• Insights that drive inspiring, original research and provide scientific backup for hypotheses are just clicks away.
Facilitates hands-on analysis in the classroom
• Prepare students for real-world projects, using multiple sources, and help them gain deeper knowledge of core and specialized subject area principles.
