The GeoTree Project

The primary goal of this project is to establish GeoInformatics Training, Research, Education, and Extension (GeoTREE) as the center for education, multi-disciplinary research, and outreach services in the geospatial technology areas for individuals from federal, state, local, and tribal government (FSLT) agencies. GeoTREE will be an interdisciplinary center and will be unique in transferring the geospatial technologies to FSLT agencies by bringing NASA scientists, academic members, and members from FSLT agencies together to integrate remote sensing data into GIS and help in improved decision-making through Decision Support Systems (DSS). The outcome from this project includes a) understand or learn the geospatial technology needs of FSLT agencies by researchers from both NASA and academic members, b) develop new geospatial tools and techniques to solve FSLT agencies day-to-day problems, and c) transfer the techniques and tools developed in this study to other communities across the country.
