Abstract

We envision a system of locally-produced student-generated data (Virtual Ponds) that are linked into a national registry (Digital Ocean). These local data will be housed in a system that retains local identity and integrity. Selected local data will be ported to a higher tier in the system after student peer-review. Local data need to have the appearance of being local to locals, and also be transparent to a larger community.
