The Flyover Country mobile app builds on the recent successes the geoinformatics community has made in improving the interoperability of geoscience databases and tools. The app visualizes data from many different geoscience disciplines in a map-based view that works worldwide. All data can be saved offline, which is useful in outreach (airplane window seat, roadtrip, or hike), research (bringing data into remote field areas), and education (self-guided field trips). The ability to easily visualize data from several geoscience disciplines simultaneously can prompt new hypothesis and lead to new discoveries. Flyover Country continues to add new data sources and expand the reach of the app, with aims of providing geoscience information to the inflight entertainment systems of airlines in the future.
