Scientific Data Solutions

Our team has solved data management and analysis for grants totalling more than $20,000,000. We can solve yours, too, whether you are collecting data in the air, in the Arctic, or down the hall.

Solutions for the entire data lifecycle

Our small team has experience spanning the scientific data collection, processing, and stewardship life cycle. We solve data acquisition problems in the field, employ advanced algorithms to ensure data integrity, and fuse data from multiple sensors. After aquiring and processing data, we perform complex analyses and help your group provide access to that data for as long as needed. Our Team

Sensor Integration

We have created both hardware and software products that are tailored to the needs of our customers. This includes carefully selecting components that are best suited to our customers’ data collection needs, and building hardware products that are protected from environmental conditions. We have designed custom circuit boards that are capable of operating sensors that can withstand extreme Arctic conditions while maintaining precision, accuracy, and speed in collecting data. Our custom products maximize accuracy and have successfully operated in a variety of conditions. Talk to us about electronic design

Data Acquisition

We have architected data acquisition and processing pipelines for contract projects. We have developed, from scratch, electronics that collect data, including having custom circuit boards manufactured and developing embedded software. Our team has managed data acquisition in the field in 5 US States, coordinating among tens of distinct university and industry groups at each site. We work to ensure the integrity of the data from the moment that it is captured. Discuss your acquisition needs

Data Integrity

Maintaining data integrity in the field is challenging. We employ state-of-the-art techniques to ensure that the data you gather is of high quality and is physically plausible. Small oversights in data handling can lead to large errors in the resulting data set, and to data sets whose behavior is not physically possible. By modelling sources of error, we can confirm that the data is of high quality. Our data processing pipeline takes care of other details, like normalizing physical units and tracking what sensor, device, or other asset the data was collected from and how the assets where configured.

Multi-source Fusion

Scientific data acquisition campaigns often involve instruments of numerous types and descriptions, operating through a large number of modalities, outputting data in dozens of different formats. In one project, we collected and managed data in 35 formats. This included dozens of UAVs; radars; EO/IR, acoustic, radio, infrasound, and other sensors; field notes; GPS receivers; and more. We ingested, processed, and correlated the data, resulting in a dataset that fused the data from the many disparate sources while allowing the user to easily drill down into the performance of an individual device. We apply advanced techniques to assign readings from various sensors across many modalities to the same physical event. Talk to us about data correlation

Data Analysis

Data science and analysis are where we got our start. Our team applies modern data science and analysis techniques to scientific and geospatial data. Our data science products are generated by reproducible code that runs in a conventional software development pipeline, rather than by ad-hoc scripts. This ensures that our products are traceable back to the data that generated them, and that future users who want access to the research can receive high quality code. Discuss data analysis

Our browser-based data visualization platform will allow us and our clients to create high-quality, reproducible, and attractive data visualizations. Talk to us about Infiniguana Data Platform

Stewardship

Your project will live on long after your grant winds up. That can be difficult to manage for grant-based organizations, because maintaining a dataset has fixed ongoing costs. We can assist you with that. We can estimate the amount of storage required and amortize that over the lifetime of your obligation, or undertake that obligation for you. Depending on the nature of the data and grant, we can make it available to your collaborators and other groups during and after the research. Discuss data stewardship
