About QGreenland
QGreenland is led by the National Snow and Ice Data Center, which is a part of the University of Colorado Boulder Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences. The project is made possible through funding from the United States National Science Foundation (award #1928393 and 2324765) and through the generous efforts of our many collaborators including the NSF Arctic Data Center.
The FAIR data principles (findable, accessible, interoperable, reproducible) are foundational to this effort. QGreenland is built using free and open software, with development tools and workflows fully documented on GitHub. The QGreenland data package includes complete metadata and clear information about the original data source. To the best of our ability, we aim to include data that are already free and publicly archived.

Logo and Inspiration
Thank you to George Roth for designing the QGreenland logo. George also championed the idea of QGreenland after playing a central role in the development of Quantarctica, and this project would not have come to fruition without his insights and energy.
