Using a Knowledge Graph to Discover Earth Science Information

Knowledge graphs link key entities within a specific domain to other entities via relationships. Researchers are able to mine these relationships from numerous sources to infer new knowledge. Text extraction from peer-reviewed papers and scientific reports are untapped resources that can be leveraged by knowledge graphs to accelerate scientific discovery.

NASA GNSS Activities: WG-B - Enhancement of GNSS Performance, New Services & Capabilities

NASA represents US civil space users at the United Nations International Committee on Global Navigation Satellite Systems (ICG). ICG Working Group B (WG-B) is responsible for Enhancement of Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) Performance, New Services and Capabilities. The development and characterization of the GNSS Space Service Volume (SSV) is a key area of activity for NASA within WG-B. This presentation contains NASA's contributions to the June 2018 meeting of the ICG WG-B. Topics covered include recent NASA lunar GPS analysis and results; proposed discussion topics for future SSV workshops and trade studies, an overview of the planned SSV Video, discussion of SSV Outreach, and NASA activities updates including GPS and Galileo Receiver for the International Space Station (GARISS), the International GNSS Service (IGS), Next-Generation Broadcast Services (NGBS), flight results from the Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission, flight results from the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) R series, the Automated Flight Termination System (AFTS), and other topics.

Building Scalable Knowledge Graphs for Earth Science

Knowledge Graphs link key entities in a specific domain with other entities via relationships. From these relationships, researchers can query knowledge graphs for probabilistic recommendations to infer new knowledge. Scientific papers are an untapped resource which knowledge graphs could leverage to accelerate research discovery. Goal: Develop an end-to-end (semi) automated methodology for constructing Knowledge Graphs for Earth Science.
