The National Geological & Geophysical Data Preservation Program offers grants to support the long-term preservation and accessibility of valuable geological and geophysical data. This grant is specifically designed to ensure that critical Earth science information—including geological maps, well logs, seismic data, rock cores, and digital datasets—is properly curated, cataloged, digitized, and archived. This initiative is essential for ongoing scientific research, informed resource management, natural hazard mitigation, and environmental protection. It supports efforts by various entities, such as state geological surveys and universities, to safeguard these irreplaceable national assets. The program facilitates the availability of high-quality data to researchers, policymakers, and the public, contributing to a better understanding of Earth’s processes and resources.
