MyGeoHub is a science gateway for researchers working with geospatial data. Based on the HUBzero cyberinfrastructure framework, it provides general-purpose software modules enabling geospatial data management, processing and visualization. Termed “GABBs” (Geospatial Data Analysis Building Blocks), these modules can be leveraged to build geospatial data driven tools with minimal programming and construct dynamic workflows chaining both local and remote tools and data sources. We will present examples of such end-to-end workflows demonstrating the underlying software building blocks that have also found use beyond the MyGeoHub gateway in other science domains.

Science gateways are becoming an integral component of modern collaborative research. They find widespread adoption by research groups to share data, code and tools both within a project and with the broader community. Sustainability beyond initial funding is a significant challenge for a science gateway to continue to operate, update and support the communities it serves. MyGeoHub.org is a geospatial science gateway powered by HUBzero. MyGeoHub employs a business model of hosting multiple research projects on a single HUBzero instance to manage the gateway operations more efficiently and sustainably while lowering the cost to individual projects. This model allows projects to share the gateway’s common capabilities and the underlying hardware and other connected computing resources, and continued maintenance of their sites even after the original funding has run out allowing time for acquiring new funding. MyGeoHub has hosted a number of projects, ranging from hydrologic modeling and data sharing, plant phenotyping, global and local sustainable development, climate variability impact on crops, and most recently, modeling of industry processes to improve reuse and recycling of materials. The shared need to manage, visualize and process geospatial data across the projects has motivated the Geospatial Data Building Blocks (GABBs) development funded by NSF DIBBs. GABBs provides a “File Explorer” type user interface for managing geospatial data (no coding is needed), a builder for visualizing and exploring geo-referenced data without coding, a Python map library and other toolkits for building geospatial analysis and computational tools without requiring GIS programming expertise. GABBs can be added to an existing or new HUBzero site, as is the case on MyGeoHub. Teams use MyGeoHub to coordinate project activities, share files and information, publish tools and datasets (with DOI) to provide not only easy access but also improved reuse and reproducibility of data and code as the interactive online tools and workflows can be used without downloading or installing software. Tools on MyGeoHub have also been used in courses, training workshops and summer camps. MyGeoHub is supporting more than 8000 users annually.

Science gateways are generally accessed via web browsers from workstation or laptop computers. However, activities such as fieldwork and data collection have prompted an increasing call for new methods of access using a wide range of mobile and specialized devices. Our work to extend the HUBzero gateway framework with new access routes is described. Specifically, an emphasis is placed on enabling the flow of geospatial data and metadata between geo-enhanced HUBzero hubs and devices in the field.

The files linked to this reference are the geospatial data created as part of the completion of the baseline vegetation inventory project for the NPS park unit. Current format is ArcGIS file geodatabase but older formats may exist as shapefiles. Following the vegetation plot data analysis, the preliminary vegetation map was edited and refined to produce a revised preliminary vegetation map prior to thematic accuracy assessment. Using ArcMap 9.2 (ESRI 1999-2006), polygon boundaries were revised on screen based on the plot data, field observations, classification analyses, aerial photography signatures, and topographic maps. Each polygon was assigned the NVC Community Element Global (CEGL) code of a preliminary vegetation association based on the information sources listed above. Second, third, and fourth CEGL code choices were entered in cases of uncertainty, or for polygons representing mosaics of two or more types.

To improve public health and the environment, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) collects information about facilities, sites, or places subject to environmental regulation or of environmental interest. Through the Geospatial Data Download Service, the public is now able to download the EPA Geodata Shapefile, Feature Class or extensible markup language (XML) file containing facility and site information from EPA's national program systems. The files are Internet accessible from the Envirofacts Web site (https://www.epa.gov/enviro). The data may be used with geospatial mapping applications. (Note: The files omit facilities without latitude/longitude coordinates.) The EPA Geospatial Data contains the name, location (latitude/longitude), and EPA program information about specific facilities and sites. In addition, the files contain a Uniform Resource Locator (URL), which allows mapping applications to present an option to users to access additional EPA data resources on a specific facility or site. i. This data was collected by Stone Environmental, Inc. for the New York State Department of State with funds provided under Title 11 of the Environmental Protection Fund.

The USGS, in cooperation with the U.S. Bureau of Land Management (BLM), created a series of geospatial mapping products of the Scotts Creek Watershed in Lake County, California, using National Agriculture Imagery Program (NAIP) imagery from 2018, 2020 and 2022 and Open Street Map (OSM) from 2019. The imagery was downloaded from United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) - Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Geospatial Data Gateway (https://datagateway.nrcs.usda.gov/) and Geofabrik GmbH - Open Street Map (https://www.geofabrik.de/geofabrik/openstreetmap.html), respectively. The imagery was classified using Random Forest (RF) Modeling to produce land cover maps with three main classifications - bare, vegetation, and shadows. An updated roads and trails map for the Upper Scotts Creek Watershed, including the BLM Recreational Area, was created to estimate road and trail densities in the watershed. Separate metadata records for each product (Land_Cover_Maps_Scotts_Creek_Watershed_CA_2018_2020_2022_metadata.xml, and Roads_and_Trails_Map_Upper_Scotts_Creek_Watershed_CA _2022_metadata.xml) are provided on the ScienceBase page for each child item. Users should be aware of the inherent errors in remote sensing products.

GDAL is an open source translator library for raster geospatial data formats that presents a single abstract data model to the calling application for all supported formats. By providing integration into the GDAL command line utilities, GIBS imagery can be easily included in imagery processing workflows, including bulk access.

The portal hosts a wide range of data and information as well as providing map services that allow visitors to see and use the data on their own computers.
It is a significant step toward the long-term SDI goal of establishing a network of seamlessly inter-operable agency nodes for geospatial data. Acting as a data clearinghouse, the portal is a common repository for our stakeholders' data and also hosts data for those agencies not yet able to implement and administer their own node.
The portal acts as a gateway to an extensive metadata catalog--this is a master inventory where users can find standard information about available geographic data sets. The data sets are generated by our stakeholders, the Abu Dhabi government agencies that develop and maintain the most commonly needed fundamental geographic data in the Emirate.

This layer is a clip of the Ohio Gridded Soil Survey Geographic (gSSURGO) data published by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) through the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). The digital soil survey dataset was developed by the National Cooperative Soil Survey, compiling information from digitized maps and remotely-sensed data. This data is available for download through the USDA NRCS GeoSpatial Data Gateway. Included with the geographic data are tables including tabular data on a variety of soil statistics and attributes. For the convenience of its residents, SCGIS joined the tabular hydric data to the soil survey polygon layer clipped to the Stark County boundary in 2015. This data reflects the last major update to the gSSURGO dataset and SCGIS has no intention of updating or adding additional tabular data to this layer in the future. For the complete dataset, including any updates, please visit the USDA NRCS GeoSpatial Data Gateway using the link provided above.

Tags are part of the information, commonly called metadata, that can be added when creating new items, authoring maps and apps, or creating new groups in your organization. They can be added to any item, can be edited, and are a useful way to boost search results and find specific content.Without proper forethought, tagging data will quickly become a subjective process with a mess of inconsistent tags existing within an organization. When sharing data publicly over a multi-organizational open data platform such as the Florida Geospatial Open Data Portal, these tags may be incompatible with tags used by other organizations.This webpage seeks to provide guidance to State of Florida organizations that participate in the Florida Geospatial Open Data Portal by highlighting how tagging data works in the ArcGIS Online platform, providing best practices for getting started tagging data in your own organization, and explaining how tagging works with the Florida Geospatial Open Data Portal.
