| Here you will find a wide range of information related to the Earth sciences, accompanied by images, graphs, maps, and movies. In addition, you will find two Java-based, interactive data analysis and mapping tools that will allow customized access to a large variety of Earth science data sets that are used by research scientists. The first Java applet, called QUEST (Quick Use Earth Science Study Tool), has been designed and developed for high school and college students who are just beginning their study of Earth science. It has an easy-to-use interface that allows access to several key Earth science data sets. The second Java applet, GEOID, is more appropriate for advanced users. It provides a dynamic mapping interface and can be used to access all of the Earth science data sets made available by Cornell. |
