The Challenge

Witness the pulse of life across our planet! From season to season and year to year, Earth's vegetation is constantly changing, providing critical information on plant species, crops, seasonal effects, pollen sources, and changes in plant phenology (the relationship between seasonal changes and climate and biological phenomena in plants).

Your challenge is toharness the power of NASA Earth observations to create a dynamic visual tool that displays and/or detects plant blooming events around the globe—just like pollinators do—and that advances solutions for monitoring, predicting, or managing vegetation.

Our Solution

BloomMinds presents Bloom Explorer, an interactive 3D platform that visualizes the globe and leverages NASA's GIBS data to track vegetation changes and flowering events in near real-time. Additionally, we offer Bloom Quiz, an educational experience designed to learn about vegetation, flowering cycles, and plant pollination.

NASA GIBS Integration

Real-time access to NDVI, surface temperature, and true-color satellite imagery from NASA.

Interactive 3D Globe

Explore vegetation data worldwide with multiple projections and dynamic map styles.

Bloom Quiz

Learn about phenology, pollination, and biodiversity through an interactive quiz experience.

Bloom Game

Play "🌿 THE LAST BOTANIST" and restore life to a dying Earth.

Key Features

NDVI Vegetation Index

Visualize vegetation health and density using the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index, with color-coded overlays showing areas of high and low vegetation activity.

Multi-Layer Data Visualization

Toggle between different NASA GIBS data layers including true color imagery, surface temperature, and vegetation indices to gain comprehensive insights.

Time-Series Analysis

Track vegetation changes over time with date selection controls, enabling the detection of blooming events and seasonal patterns across different regions.
