| Abstract | Earth system datasets continue to expand in size and complexity, making it increasingly difficult for non-experts to explore satellite observations and model outputs. We argue that new avenues for data exploration are needed to lower this barrier. Here we present the first interactive, touch-enabled physical data cube that allows users to explore any Earth system dataset intuitively across space, time, and variables. Exhibiting the physical data cube at a major conference showed that users could easily explore and identify patterns in atmospheric and land-surface data through direct physical interaction, demonstrating the system's potential for scientific discovery, education and public engagement. |
