Advanced data discovery and visualization for energy data sources

A system comprising:

• a map view configured to display a plurality of data locations;
• a plurality of application components;
• and
• a server application executing on one or more servers and configured for:
• presenting the map view displaying the plurality of data locations;
• receiving a selection identifying a subset of the map view;
• selecting the plurality of application components corresponding to the data locations from the subset of the map view;
• updating, responsive to selecting the plurality of application components, a toolbar displayed on the map view to include a plurality of icons corresponding to the plurality of application components;
• presenting a visualization component, of the plurality of application components, displaying data, corresponding to a data location of the plurality of data locations, in response to a selection from the toolbar;
• and
• creating, using a workflow component of the plurality of application components, a project workspace, wherein the data presented with the visualization component is automatically imported to the project workspace.

A method comprising:

• displaying, on a user interface, a map view with a plurality of data locations;
• receiving a selection identifying a subset of the map view;
• updating a toolbar displayed on the map view to include a plurality of icons of a plurality of application components configured to use data identified with the selection of the subset of the map view;
• displaying, on the user interface, a visualization component, of the plurality of application components, with the data in response to a selection from the toolbar;
• and
• creating, using a workflow component of the plurality of application components, a project workspace, wherein the data displayed with the visualization component and the map view is automatically imported to the project workspace.
