Our ESIP, the Earth Data Discovery Consortium ESIP, is welcoming some
new faces from our new organizational partner, RSI Inc.  

As we move ahead with plans to extend our data discovery technology, we
are very happy to have the active participation of one of our main
technology suppliers.
Please feel free to look at the full announcement on our ESIP page:

has always had a rich academic heritage.  We are committed as ever to
developing and fostering excellent relationships with top universities
across the country.

Academic ESIP members receive an additional discount on RSI’s products.
