Providing Data to Researchers Globally Through Microsoft Planetary Computer

The Lab’s Global Downscaled Projections for Climate Impacts Research dataset (Gergel et al, 2024) is open and freely available for researchers globally on the Microsoft Planetary Computer. Presenting the data in an analysis‑ready format on the Planetary Computer, an interface developed by Microsoft’s AI for Earth initiative, puts these hyperlocal projections directly into the hands of scientists and researchers around the world, amplifying their positive impact. The availability of these global climate projections on cloud operating systems is a game‑changer, empowering researchers to search, discover, and interact with the data with ease.
