Presentation Transcript

  1. Proposition 301 and Arizona State University • http://researchnet.asu.edu/prop301/isit.html • The Arizona Board of Regents (ABOR) has established a high level of accountability for the use of Proposition 301 funds.

  2. ABOR Performance measures • Return on Investment • New research funding • Technology Transfer • New software package distributed • Hits per month on research websites • Tech Transfer: patent disclosures filed • Tech Transfer: patents awarded and licensed • Tech Transfer: startup companies created • Economic development • Companies identifying ASU as a factor in locating or expanding in Arizona • Workforce contributions • Graduates from ASU in the related IT fields • Minority enrollment growth • Curriculum Innovations • High school students completing software design material • Internships (in industry or through the Software Factory on campus)

  3. Geospatial and geotemporal (3D and 4D) IT challenges and opportunities Contact me if interested! J Ramón Arrowsmith Department of Geological Sciences Ramon.arrowsmith@asu.edu

  4. IT challenges and opportunities • Common spatial and temporal reference frames • Middleware for data and modeling tools • Data mining/Knowledge discovery • Data and models • Model testing • Visualization • Decision-making

  5. Urban Growth: What controls these patterns and what does the future hold (next year, 5 years, 100 years)? CAP-LTR ASU GISLab

  6. Bringing data and models together for better understanding Urban Meteorology-ASU EFD group (Sang Mi-Lee) Landsat image data for greater Phoenix:

Cities, County, MAG, FCDMC, ADOT, ADWR, ADEQ ?? Local decision making (growth management, air quality, water supply) Geomarketing, location research Environmental studies Urban studies Urban ecology NSF-ITR NASA MTPE ?? Collaborative ties and return on investment

  8. Center for Spatial and Temporal Analysis of Environmental Data and ModelsA proposal for the Information Sciences/Information Technology component of the ASU Proposition 301 Mission: “The Center for Spatial and Temporal Analysis of Environmental Data and Models brings information technology tools to the fusion, overlay, mining, and modeling of environmental characteristics, history, and simulations for the future. A broad group of ASU researchers and local and regional agencies come together to solve common geospatial and geotemporal problems. For the greater Phoenix region to be economically competitive, it must come from a position of strength through integrated environmental knowledge. “ http://activetectonics.la.asu.edu/cstaedm/

  9. Research Problems • Web-accessible knowledge and database tools • Demographic, economic, and political dependence on infrastructure, natural systems, and environmental information • Geomarketing/location research • Urban ecology • Growth management • Water supply • Air quality

  10. Potential research projects • Mining and delineation of trends and inter-relationships between variables from large data bases obtained through LTER and EFD's atmospheric simulations efforts •  Building a common platform among environmental models • Large spatial scale correlations between urban and natural patterns • High resolution depictions of natural processes and urban responses: implications for real time monitoring of urban/natural systems • Location research: How can high quality environmental data improve the business climate for the greater Phoenix area?

  11. Integrative efforts • Curriculum development • Visiting scholars program • Seminar series • Student travel • Environmental Information Summit

  12. Logistics • Management • Facilities • Budget

  13. Budgetary reality-open to debate

  14. What is next? • Write the proposal and iterate on feedback • What I need: • Your ideas/comments • A measure of your interest • Projects • Performance measures • New proposals that might be written with some critical pilot work done through such a center • Structure • Management • Names of colleagues to involve or get feedback
