High-Level Project Summary
Many users are struggling each day while searching for the exact data that will meet their needs . There are some incredible data available from many space agencies which is not used the right way. Our solution DATA4∀1(standing for data for everyone ) is a web application which aims to guide each user through his journey of searching for data step by step through an ontology of filters until he will find the exact information. This solution will allow businessman, students even artists to get what they want rapidly save them time and frustration. Also, Our WebApp aims to involve the science enthusiasts in the searching process by displaying the relationships as a story.

Detailed Project Description
In our DATA4∀1 a network of filters will be displayed . At each step the user have to choose the filter that he will apply to the actual data and if he will continue the filtering process to get more precise data , or to stop at this stage and display all the current data according to the filters that are applied previously.
Take a look on our first prototype:
To build this project the following ontology was designed:
From the Following ontology the metadata of the data will be as follows:
Result of the implementation:

Data page:
Tools used to build the project:
. Javascript
.nodeJs
.html
.CSS
.firebase storage
.JSON
Space Agency Data
The dataset used is the Nasa portal data, offered by the Nasa agency. The project uses a restricted version with some added attributes. Those attributes were added according to the metadata that was shown previously.
Hackathon Journey
During our journey in this hackathon we've learned so much especially about the data of space agencies and how it was organized. The challege picked up our attention because actually strugglling while searching for data is a problem that we are facing everyday as a student when we are spending a bunch of hours while searching instead of focusing on studying and analyzing.This is why our team thought about this ontology of filters which will be able to put itself in the shoes of each user no matter what his speciality,purpose of research or language is.
We would like to Thank the US EMBASSY and association LOOP FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY for giving us the opportunity to participate on this challenge . We would also like to thank the experts that helped us a lot either during the bootcamp by their interesting sessions or during the hackathon with their precious advice that helped us a lot to improve our idea and our prototype.
