Datasets available on the LinkedEarth wiki

In answering this question, remember that all the datasets on the wiki are public. The LinkedEarth team is considering adding a feature where a dataset could be uploaded and kept private until publication, but this feature is not yet available.

Results of the poll conducted on Twitter 3/17/17-3/23/17

Note: Do not edit the polls (even for typos) once voting has started as it will reset the vote counts to zero. If a change needs to be made, make an annotation above the old poll (i.e., above the poll tags) and place the new poll below the first one.

Should the LinkedEarth wiki contain datasets:

• Simon Goring: "I would think that legacy data would be any data contributed that doesn't meet up with "new" standards." Twitter link
• Kaustubh Thirumalai: "In the current stage of LinkedEarth - pre-digitization IMO. e.g. "Legacy Seismic" = data on tapes" Twitter link
