Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS)

«SDSS-III Building on the legacy of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and SDSS-II, the SDSS-III Collaboration is carrying out a program of four surveys to map the structure and dynamics of the Milky Way, to find and characterize extrasolar planetary systems, and to understand dark energy and the nature of the universe.
Between 2008 and 2014, SDSS-III's four surveys are using Apache Point Observatory's 2.5-meter telescope. SDSS-III will continue the SDSS tradition of public data releases, with the first release scheduled for January 2011. The survey will also continue its commitment to making its data available and useful to students, teachers, and citizen scientists.»

Google Earth Engine


Google Earth Engine - A planetary-scale platform for environmental data & analysis

http://earthengine.googlelabs.com/


«Google Earth Engine brings together the world's satellite imagery—trillions of scientific measurements dating back more than 25 years—and makes it available online with tools for scientists, independent researchers, and nations to mine this massive warehouse of data to detect changes, map trends and quantify differences to the earth's surface. Using this new tool, we've already begun helping scientists develop applications for detecting deforestation and mapping land use trends, and have started working with individual countries to develop their own applications.

QUORA



«A continually improving collection of questions and answers created, edited, and organized by everyone who uses it.»
«Quora is a simple question-and-answer site. Whatever your question, type it in the search box and, if there isn't already an answer there, users will pile in and attempt to answer it. Information is organised more like Wikipedia than Google, with answers prioritised by how useful they are, but the site uses Twitter-style following to track the best contributors. (Guardian)»
