INTRO: Earth Data Canvas — visualization of planet data

Earth Data Canvas converts complex planetary data into accessible and understandable visualizations, stories, and experiences. According to NASA, over 25 terabytes of Earth data are collected daily from satellites, sensors, and other sources, requiring effective tools for visualization and communication. Earth Data Canvas is created as a comprehensive platform for creating, publishing, and disseminating Earth data visualizations.

The platform provides access to over 420 data palettes and a drag-and-drop canvas builder, allowing media outlets, educational institutions, tourist info centers, citizen science organizations, and communities to create and publish Earth data visualizations. Through the Data Palette for collecting and organizing data, Drag-and-Drop Canvas Builder for creating visualizations, Storytelling Studio for storytelling, and Distribution Hub for publishing and distribution, the system ensures a 65% reduction in time spent on visualization creation and supports multilingual localization.

Earth Data Canvas not only visualizes data — it activates understanding. Through integration with NASA, ESA, NOAA, and other data sources, support for XR experiences and interactive maps, 24/7 access to data palette, canvas builder, and storytelling studio, as well as multilingual localization support, the platform helps organizations and communities tell stories about the planet and engage audiences in environmental protection.
