Lessons from NASA: The Power of Data Sharing

It’s no surprise that NASA collects unfathomable amounts of data every day, to the tune of terabytes. While all this data helps inform incredible new discoveries, it’s also helping to power insights at other agencies. In fact, NASA shares its data with the U.S. Geological Survey to evaluate coastal erosion and USGS then uses the same dataset to prevent potentially dangerous mudslides.

This is the power of data sharing.
