NEON provides open ecological data from 81 sites across the United States, covering a wide range of subject areas, including organismal observations, biogeochemistry, and remote sensing. Surface-atmosphere exchange data are collected at all 47 terrestrial NEON sites, enabling analysis and synthesis both within and across sites. This workshop will provide an introduction to data access via the Data Portal and the API, and to working with NEON flux data using the neonUtilities R package.

NEON will host a booth at Ohia Love Fest to describe the work NEON conducts in Hawaii and highlight the importance of the ohia tree to Hawaii’s forests.
This workshop will provide an introduction to discovering, accessing and preparing a variety of NEON data for your research, primarily using R. The workshop will be divided into two sections of roughly equal length.
Apply to participate in a three-day workshop hosted by the University of Texas at El Paso, New Mexico State University and NEON that will take place November 6 - 8, 2019.
Participants will leave this session with the tools and comfort level to discover and access data from the NEON data portal and to be aware of and able to use the open educational resources available from NEON.

COVID-19 Update: Given the rapidly evolving COVID-19 situation, the organizing committee of the structural diversity workshop has decided to go to a shorter virtual meeting format on May 18th and 19th from 1:00 PM - 5:00 PM EST and to postpone the in-person site meeting for a future date. Please cancel all travel arrangements you have made for May 19-20 th in Boulder, CO but reserve May 18 th and 19 th for the virtual workshop. For those of you who received travel awards please try to get a refund, but if you are not able to do so contact elarue@purdue.edu to get additional directions as new...
The NCWIT Summit sets the stage for NCWIT member representatives, notable field experts, and renowned guests to present and learn about leading-edge practices, to network and form partnerships, and to provide encouragement and inspiration for one another.
Tour Time: 3pm - 5pm MT A free CO-LABS network tour of the National Ecological Observatory Network headquarters and labs in Boulder, CO. The National Ecological Observatory Network, sponsored by the National Science Foundation and operated by Battelle, is designed to collect and provide open data that characterize and quantify complex, rapidly changing ecological processes across the United States. NEON collects and processes data that characterize plant, animals, soil, nutrients, freshwater and atmosphere from field sites across the U.S. (including Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico). Data and...
NEON will be at the NSF INCLUDES Conference: Bringing Conversations on Diversity and Inclusion in Data Science to the Environmental Sciences, which is a 3-day conference with the ultimate goal of developing a networked improvement community (i.e., Environmental Data Sciences Inclusion Network) that works to ensure inclusion across environmental data science professions.
Proposals for the NSF-funded Macrosystems Biology and NEON-Enabled Science are due February 25, 2019. The Macrosystems Biology and NEON-Enabled Science (MSB-NES): Research on Biological Systems at Regional to Continental Scales program will support quantitative, interdisciplinary, systems-oriented research on biosphere processes and their complex interactions with climate, land use, and invasive species at regional to continental scales as well as training activities to enable groups to conduct Macrosystems Biology and NEON-Enabled Science research.
With this Dear Colleague Letter (DCL), the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Division of Biological Infrastructure (DBI) and Division of Environmental Biology (DEB) within the Directorate for Biological Sciences (BIO) announce an intent to support Research Coordination Networks (RCNs, NSF 17-594) to coordinate new and existing groups of scientists conducting research enabled by the National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON).
The Macrosystems Biology and NEON-Enabled Science (MSB-NES) Program of the National Science Foundation will host a Webinar on Feb 6 at 2pm EST to explain the new MSB-NES solicitation (NSF 19-538) and the Dear Colleague Letter (NSF 19-031) encouraging proposals for Research Coordination Networks.
THE ASPRS 2019 Annual Conference and International Lidar Mapping Forum will again take place with the ASPRS Annual Conference, providing a space to access strategic contacts, cutting-edge hardware and software, and expert education in the geospatial technology market.
Learn to work with repeat-photography images to study landscape changes. This workshop is a joint effort between the PhenoCam network and the National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON) to share recently developed tools facilitating access to, and analysis of, camera imagery and higher-order data products available through PhenoCam.
We will explore these NEON Surface Atmosphere Exchange resources and solicit input to guide development of NEON SAE community resources for 2019. Additionally, the workshop offers hands-on tutorials utilizing eddy4R vignettes in a cloud-computing environment.
The AGU 2018 Fall Meeting will be hosted in Washington D.C. from December 10th through 14th. Over 50 NEON-related events will be happening at the meeting.
The goal of the workshop is to synthesize a set of goals and objectives for the next phase of the national effort to deploy the data held in our natural history collections for research and education, and to suggest strategies for meeting these goals and achieving these objectives including technological advances, new community standards and potential partnerships.
