Purpose of Today's Workshop

Today's workshop will serve as an introduction to various unique and compelling Internet resources, particularly in the areas of science and mathematics. Participants will learn about real time and archived data available on the internet and its' various applications in the classroom.

Introduction to Real Time Data

• The Weather Channel Online: Current weather information
• Weather Underground
• Radar Images :  Real time radar images
• Satellite Images :  Real time satellite images

Understanding Real Time Data Images

• Understanding Time Conversion
• Converting from AM/PM to UTC
• Compare Your Computer's Clock to the Atomic Web Clock (UTC)

Types of Real Time Data

• Recent Volcanic Activity
• N.J. Air Monitoring Site: Find info on air quality in your area
• Real Time Buoy Data
• Real Time Ocean Satellite Data
• Solar System Live
• Special Events: Shuttle Launches
• Financial Information
• Educational Webcams

Real Time Data Resources

• Real Time Data Resource Page

Archived Databases

• Find the distance between any two locations on the globe 
• USGS National Mapping Information
• Climvis Online Climate Data
• Live Access to Climate Data
• NOAAServer
• Datasets Sources
• Raw Databases
• Exploring Datasets (With Math Lessons)
• On-line topograhic Maps
