Radiant Earth is a 501(c)(3) non-profit working to increase shared understanding of our world through initiatives that make data easier to access and use.

The future of our species depends on our ability to develop sustainable methods of sharing data with one another. Shared access to data allows humans to develop a fact-based and shared understanding of our world, which is necessary for us to collaboratively address global challenges.

Expanding access to data is necessary to empower more people to perform scientific research, reduce the cost of research and product development, enable reproducibility of research, and foster collaboration among institutions.
