This award provides funds for the acquisition of an unlimited cpu license to the source code of the GEOTOOLS computer program which integrates state of the art software for interpreting magnetotelluric (MT) data, a relational data base in standard, internationally accepted format, and utilities for converting MT data to standard format. The GEOTOOLS program has been adopted as standard by the geophysics research community working in the MT area and is already accessible to workers in Canada and Mexico. The PI will obtain the license at a very substantial educational discount and will provide it to all interested educational organizations in the U.S. The MT community uses natural electromagnetic energy to image internal Earth structure in terms of properties such as electrical conductivity. Analysis of MT data is very computer intensive and progress in the field has been inhibited by diverse data formats that complicate data sharing, by difficulties of visualizing the 3-D data, and by the problem of interfacing data with incompatible analysis software programs developed by different groups. Access to the GEOTOOLS program will result in a uniform, flexible MT data analysis environment for all of North America.

该奖项提供资金用于收购一个无限的 cpu许可的GEOTOOLS计算机程序源代码 它集成了最先进的翻译软件 大地电磁（MT）数据是标准的关系数据库， 国际上接受的格式，以及转换MT的实用程序 数据转换为标准格式。GEOTOOLS计划已被采纳为 由在MT工作的地球物理学研究团体制定的标准 目前，加拿大和墨西哥的工人已经可以使用该系统。的 PI将在一个非常实质性的教育机构获得许可证。 折扣，并将提供给所有感兴趣的教育 在美国的组织 MT社区使用自然电磁能来成像 内部地球结构的性质，如电气 电导率MT数据的分析是非常计算机密集的， 数据格式的多样性阻碍了这一领域的进展 这使数据共享变得复杂，因为难以可视化 3-D数据，并通过接口数据与不兼容的问题， 分析软件程序由不同的小组开发。接入 GEOTOOLS程序将产生统一、灵活的MT数据 整个北美的分析环境。
