SeedMe.org - Scientific data sharing made easy

While scientists around the world now collaborate via advanced network infrastructures connected to bleeding-edge computing resources. Retrieving, sharing and reusing their results from a vast array of platforms and mobile devices is complicated, time consuming and laborious.

SeedMe is short for Stream, Encode, Explore and Disseminate My Experiments and is inspired by seeds that proliferate and grow in a fertile environment. Just as agriculture spurred the development of civilization, SeedMe offers the science community a searchable ecosystem of rich research content and knowledge to curate and cultivate. One resource that lets scientists seamlessly share and stream results on a variety of platforms, including mobile devices.

SeedMe is a result of a decade of onerous experience in preparing and sharing visualization results from supercomputing simulations with many researchers at different geographic locations using different operating systems. It’s been a labor–intensive process, unsupported by useful tools and procedures for sharing information. SeedMe provides a secure and easy-to-use functionality for efficiently and conveniently sharing results that aims to create transformative impact across many scientific domains.

SeedMe is being developed and maintained by the Visualization Group at the San Diego Supercomputer Center at the University of California, San Diego.
