CHRONOS receives award from NSF-OCE
CHRONOS has been funded by the National Science Foundation - Division of Ocean Sciences for the collaborative proposal 'Ocean Drilling Data, Discovery, Global Visualization and Synthesis'. This research is a collaboration between Dr. W.B.F. Ryan of Columbia University and CHRONOS. The goal of this collaborative project is to make all “legacy” sediment and biostratigraphic data from the cores and downhole measurements of the Deep Sea Drilling Project and the Ocean Drilling Program available via Web Services for visualization by the public using our own applications as well as other 3-D virtual globes in order to significantly enhance the use of these data for learning and scientific discovery.
