BOULDER, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jun 4, 2018--When the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) hosted, for the first time, a meeting of the Group of Senior Officials (GSO) for Global Research Infrastructures, NEON project staff members from Battelle were asked to share details of their recent work to build and operate the ecological Observatory.
The National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON) is a continental-scale ecological observation facility, sponsored by the NSF and operated by Battelle since 2016. The NEON project collects and provides free and open data that characterizes and quantifies complex, rapidly changing ecological processes across the United States. The project’s comprehensive data, spatial extent and remote sensing technology will enable the user community to tackle new questions both on larger (continental) and longer (decadal) scales.
