Activities of the iUTAH Cyberinfrastructure Team (CI Team) focus on developing hardware and software systems, and tools that improve iUTAH participants’ capacity for data collection, organization, management, sharing, synthesis to higher-level products, and integration with models.

iUTAH EPSCoR regularly shares its free and open access to comprehensive sets of data, models, and other digital resources. Below is a small sampling of some of the most recent submissions.

Urban tree on the University of Utah campus

Dataset: Energy Balance of an Isolated Urban Tree (2014)
Brian Bailey, Rob Stoll, and Eric Pardyjak collected data to better understand the energy transfer of a tree on the University of Utah campus. They have published data related to surface temperature and fluxes of sensible heat, latent heat, radiation, and moisture, as well as infrared thermographic images of the tree and code for generating plots.

Visualization results from the RFA3 survey

Dataset: RFA 3 Model Inventory (2015)
David Rosenberg has created and published an inventory and visualizations of current modeling efforts of iUTAH researchers. This dataset provides an overview of the iUTAH RFA3 teams’ modeling efforts, maps them to the iSAW conceptual model, and can be used to identify opportunities for model coupling. 

Typology of neighborhoods in ten Utah counties

Dataset: Relating to 'Water-Relevant Typology' of Urban Neighborhoods (2015)
Doug Jackson-Smith, Martin Buchert, and Philip Stoker developed a typology of urban neighborhoods to classify neighborhoods by multi-variant, water-related characteristics in the urban census block groups of ten northern Utah counties. They have published a report of their methods of analysis and results.
