EarthScope Consortium (formerly IRIS and UNAVCO) is dedicated to supporting transformative global geophysical research and education. We provide free, easy-to-use tools for incorporating geophysical data into instruction, high-quality teaching resources (e.g. lessons, animations, etc.) for secondary and higher ed, and impactful student training programs.

Since 1836, the Pennsylvania Geological Survey has been serving the commonwealth as a science-based research organization that collects, preserves, and uses data in support of objective interpretations about Pennsylvania's geologic resources:

• Water
• Energy
• Mineral
• Land

Our team of geologists and professional staff disseminates impartial geologic information essential to environmental stewardship, human health and safety, infrastructure development, and economic growth.

We provide convenient and openly available geologic maps, publications, reports, databases, libraries, collections, water well driller licensing, and educational outreach to both the public and private sectors.

To learn science, you need to do science. Science Interactive empowers our campus partners to deliver authentic lab experiences for every student through hands-on labs and world-class digital simulations that provide students with the knowledge and skills they need - no matter how far they are from campus.

The StraboSpot database and applications enable collecting, storing, and sharing of geologic data across scales and disciplines.  StraboField and StraboMicro are designed to help Geologists collect data and integrate field data with laboratory (thin-section scale) observations and associated data; StraboExperimental allows scientists to upload rock deformation data. The StraboSpot apps allow users to integrate images seamlessly into the database and attribute data flexibly. Developed with community input and feedback, the data system adheres to the FAIR principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable) to ensure data consistency and accessibility.
