Greetings Cryolisters - 

The ESIP Lab is happy to announce our 2017 request for Incubator Projects.

Incubator projects lie in the realm of good ideas ready to be tried out. They should provide a proof-of-concept solution to a problem identified by the Earth sciences community. Incubator projects have a 6-month duration and total budget of $7000. Deadline for submission is October 12, 2017.

Potential incubation projects could include, but are not limited to, those that:
  • Create an open-source solution that reduces barriers along the data lifecycle.
  • Provide a proof-of-concept for an emerging technology slated for operational use.
  • Provide an opportunity for a student to investigate an interesting problem.
  • Investigate ideas related to the 2018 ESIP theme of Promoting techniques to articulate and measure the socioeconomic value and benefit of Earth science data, information and applications.
