Save Earth
Develop a web tool, mobile device app or add-on for existing apps or websites that leverages NASA imagery and climate data to illustrate the impacts of our changing Earth in areas of interest to you. Some ideas to explore include:
- Use NASA Earth observations data, social media, smart phones, and Short Message Service (SMS) text phones to collect Earth observations and connect public in local, regional, and national networks to communicate about our changing planet.
- Examine current natural events curated by NASA’s EONET (Earth Observatory Natural Event Tracker) by browsing global historical and near real-time imagery from space.
- Upload images or other data points demonstrating visible observations and how they compare to satellite data. For example, generating early-warning alerts or validating precipitation rates reported from NASA’s Global Precipitation Measurement Mission.
- Integrate NASA imagery with a mobile assistant to allow for dynamic image generation based on a basic request structure.
What we have done is simple. Our team has used every source possible to collect data from NASA or any other official site so that we can manipulate these data and turn them into visual graphs so everyone can easily interpret them and create their own opinion. These graphs represent the difficult changes that our earth is facing, such as global warming. By doing this everyone can be convinced that global warming is a real threat and can start doing something about it. They will be given the choice to do something for we have a simulation by creating a foreseeable graph by studying all the acquired data and creating a coefficient (with the help of a math teacher) to calculate future rainfall, temperature and deforestation. Our application is open source for everyone who wants to use our scientific acquired data.
