Tag: Registry of Open Data on AWS

Open data is reshaping how we understand and respond to global challenges. From climate change to disaster recovery, the ability to access and analyze large-scale geospatial datasets is critical for scientific research, policy-making, and real-world applications. Leading the charge are several open data initiatives designed to lower access barriers and accelerate innovation: Open Data on AWS, the Amazon Sustainability Data Initiative (ASDI), and the Maxar Open Data Program on AWS. Together, these programs demonstrate the power of cloud-enabled open data to democratize access to geospatial information, promote global collaboration, and drive real-world impact. In this post, we demonstrate how to explore and visualize these datasets using interactive web applications and Jupyter notebooks.

In this post, we discuss how to use datasets in the Registry of Open Data on AWS with Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Bases. With Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Bases, you can give foundation models (FMs) and agents contextual information from private and public data sources to deliver more relevant, accurate, and customized responses.

Through the AWS Open Data Sponsorship Program, customers are making over 300 PB of high-value, cloud-optimized data available for public use. All publicly available datasets can be found in the Registry of Open Data on AWS and are now also discoverable on Exchange. This quarter, AWS released 66 new or updated datasets.

Many government agencies, like the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), participate in the AWS Open Data Sponsorship Program. In this post, we discuss how to use NOAA datasets in the Registry of Open Data on AWS using Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Bases.

The AWS Open Data Sponsorship Program makes high-value, cloud-optimized datasets publicly available on Amazon Web Services (AWS). AWS works with data providers to democratize access to data by making it available to the public for analysis on AWS; develop new cloud-based techniques, formats, and tools that lower the cost of working with data; and encourage the development of communities that benefit from access to shared datasets. The full list of publicly available datasets are on the Registry of Open Data on AWS and are now also discoverable on AWS Data Exchange. This quarter, AWS released 53 new or updated datasets and you can learn more about them in this post.

This post explores the architectural design and security concepts employed by Radboud University Medical Center Nijmegen (Radboudumc) to build a secure artificial intelligence (AI) runtime environment on Amazon Web Services (AWS). Business leaders dealing with sensitive or regulated data will find this post invaluable because it demonstrates a proven approach to using the power of AI while maintaining strict data privacy and security standards.

Sharing data is essential for organizations to make informed decisions and foster innovation. Amazon Web Services (AWS) offers a variety of tools and services to help distribute data securely and at scale. Whether it’s sharing public data for the common good, monetizing private datasets for business purposes, or collaborating with colleagues, AWS provides the necessary infrastructure and support.

PubMed Central (PMC) is a leading resource for biomedical literature, offering a vast repository of full-text biomedical and life sciences journal articles. While PMC offers immense potential to accelerate scientific progress, inform evidence-based practice, and drive innovation in the biomedical and life sciences fields, the sheer volume of data presents a significant challenge. This is where Amazon Q Business comes in. It’s a powerful service designed to streamline the process of analyzing vast amounts of scientific literature and provide valuable insights efficiently.

Through this program, customers are making over 100 petabytes (PB) of high-value, cloud-optimized data available for public use. This quarter, AWS released 39 new or updated datasets.

At Amazon Web Services (AWS), we believe in the power of cloud technology to transform healthcare and improve lives. Because of this, at AWS re:Invent 2024 we announced a commitment of up to $2 million in AWS credits to help four Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H) Sprint for Women’s Health launchpad awardees address critical unmet challenges in women’s health.
