OpenTopography 2: A Cyberinfrastructure-Enabled Facility for
High-Resolution Topographic Data and Tools
PI: Chaitan Baru (SDSC)Co-PIs: J Ramon Arrowsmith (ASU)
Christopher Crosby (UNAVCO)Viswanath Nandigam (SDSC)
Democratize online access to high-resolution earth science-oriented, topography data acquired with LiDAR and other
technologies.
How do we deliver these large community datasets to users?
• Large user community with variable needs and levels of sophistication.
• Goal: maximize access to data to achieve greatest scientific impact.
• Big data – treat data as an asset that can be used and reused
Current OpenTopography HoldingsOT Data Catalog
• LiDAR returns: ~499.9 billion
• Size on disk: 12+ TB
• Area: 85,757 km2
• 108 (7 TLS) datasets
• And growing!
