Get Involved on the Ground Level
NASA is at the forefront of solving the world's toughest challenges with Earth observation data. Our community includes investigators, civil servants, advocates, and concerned citizens. It can include you, too.
Working together with our partners and collaborators, nearly anything is possible. Things like reducing energy use on college campuses with more sustainable practices. Pinpointing where to plant trees and reduce pollution runoff into city waterways. Equipping communities with accurate information about wildfire vulnerability.
The Applied Sciences Program helps you get the resources and skills you need to use Earth observations in your work. We offer tools, trainings, funding opportunities, and more. You'll also find community support to help you see your projects through to the finish line.
