The goals of the Magnetics Information Consortium (MagIC) are to develop an open communitydigital data archive for rock and paleomagnetic data with web portals that allow users freeaccess to archive, search, visualize and download these data to improve research capabilitiesin the Earth sciences. Much progress has been made, with data from more than 4,000 scientificpublications in its holdings and a state-of-the-art user search interface.With this award,the principal investigators extend their current 2-year grant into a 5-year overall project to bring MagIC into the realm of modern-day interoperability with other Earth Science databases (e.g. with GPlates and IODP), and with initiatives like EarthChem and Geochron, to provide seamless access to geochemistry information and radiometric ages on the sample data stored in MagIC. They also will focus on streamlining data entry, providing a personal workspace, an online review system, simple web services, providing advanced visualization tools from Google and involving more researchers in the archiving and reviewing uploaded data in order to maintain the reliability of the archive.

磁性信息联盟（MagIC）的目标是开发一个开放的社区，为岩石和古地磁数据提供数字数据存档，并提供门户网站，允许用户免费访问存档、搜索、可视化和下载这些数据，以提高地球科学的研究能力。目前已经取得了很大的进展，拥有来自4,000多份科学出版物的数据和最先进的用户搜索界面。有了这个奖项，主要研究人员将他们目前的两年资助扩展到一个为期5年的整体项目，使MagIC进入与其他地球科学数据库的现代互操作性领域。（例如与GPlates和IODP）以及EarthChem和Geochron等倡议合作，以提供对存储在MagIC中的样品数据的地球化学信息和放射性年龄的无缝访问。他们还将专注于简化数据输入，提供个人工作空间，在线审查系统，简单的网络服务，提供来自谷歌的高级可视化工具，并让更多的研究人员参与存档和审查上传的数据，以保持存档的可靠性。
