Collections

Currently, Chronopolis houses four collections from within the NDIIPP community:

The Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR), based at the University of Michigan, is providing data from its world-renowned archive of social science and political research data sets. Established in 1962, ICPSR is the world's largest archive of digital social science data. The data in Chronopolis marks the first time that the collection is completely stored outside the state of Michigan.

The California Digital Library (CDL) is providing content from its "Web-at-Risk" collections. Web-at-Risk is a multi-year effort led by CDL to develop tools that enable librarians and archivists to capture, curate, preserve, and provide access to web-based government and political information. The primary focus of the collection is state and local government information, but may include web documents from federal and international government as well as non-profit sources.

The North Carolina Geospatial Data Archiving Project is a joint project of the North Carolina State University Libraries and the North Carolina Center for Geographic Information and Analysis. It is focused on collection and preservation of digital geospatial data resources from state and local government agencies in North Carolina. This project is providing a copy of their collection to Chronopolis.

Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego (SIO) has one of the largest academic research fleets in the world, with four research vessels and the research platform FLIP. Since 1907, Scripps oceanographic vessels have played a critical role in the exploration of our planet, conducting important research in all the world's oceans. SIO is providing data from several decades of data from its cruises.
