Earth Knowledge's WISSDOM® Clarifies the Chaos

Maps and data visualization are powerful tools to connect people and information. There is so much data and information available, the key is to identify what matters most, and to communicate that information in a way that everyone can use – not just scientists or those trained in data management.

Earth Knowledge designed WISSDOM: a cohesive web-based application that incorporates information management related to Global Change, including:

  • decision-making tools
  • virtual map and globes
  • big-data analysis
  • business intelligence
  • social collaboration

WISSDOM is platform agnostic and can incorporate technology from Google, IBM, Apple, Amazon, ESRI, Microsoft and others.

The WISSDOM platform provides a simple, intuitive, elegant and engaging user interface and experience to ensure complex data is understandable and actionable to businesses and its stakeholders.
