Remarks
The OpenTopography Facility is based at the San Diego Supercomputer Center at the University of California, San Diego and is operated in collaboration with colleagues in the School of Earth and Space Exploration at Arizona State University and Earthscope Consortium.
Core operational support for OpenTopography comes from the National Science Foundation Earth Sciences: Geoinformatics.
As an NSF-EAR-funded data facility, OpenTopography’s primary emphasis is on Earth science-related, research-grade, topography and bathymetry data. The scope of data that falls within this domain is not specifically defined, and data priorities are dictated by feedback from the OpenTopography user community, as well as our Advisory Committee. OpenTopography's data catalog is federated by Data.gov, Thompson Reuters and is FAIR complaint.
