What We Do

The Curator project collaboratively develops software infrastructure to support end-to-end modeling in the Earth sciences. It spans the gaps between modeling and data services, using metadata to exhaustively document models and datasets and to automate routine processes and sophisticated workflows.

The Curator collaborators and their partners are working towards computational environments which are accessible, organized, and populated with artifacts which are thoroughly described and categorized - curated so that generations of scientists, students, and others can study and use them.
