Imaggeo geosci image library

Tuesday, 8 May, 2012

A nice catch from Paolo (thanks!) at EGU last month was the launch of Imaggeo which is an open access geoscience image library. All the images are interesting and range from stunning through to poor quality (but none-the-less interesting). Some historical some modern and, increasingly, something for everyone. If you are giving that lecture and suddenly realise you need that image of a pingo (actually, for the time being you’ll have to go to Wikipedia because they don’t have that image). However the library is new (everything licensed under Creative Commons which is nice to see) and growing…. it’d be nice if they put the total number of the front page, but if you go to the Sections page you’ll get an idea of how many (about 1300 at the moment).
