ColoradoView is part of the U.S. Geological Survey’s (USGS) nationwide program, AmericaView. This organization focuses on providing easy, low-cost access to remotely-sensed data and promoting remote sensing education, research, and applications.
Colorado contains a high concentration of remote sensing and GIS entities from world class academics, to governmental and private organizations. As the selected director of ColoradoView, the USDA UV-B Monitoring and Research Program (UVMRP) will draw upon this expertise to build a unique and valuable resource for all Coloradoans who are involved with remote sensing and GIS data information. The UVMRP Program Summary can be viewed here, or if you are interested in learning more about new things going on with AmericaView, visit the AmericaView blog.
Mission/Goals
As a part of the nationwide AmericaView project, our mission goals include:
- Provide an online resource for a variety of remote sensing and GIS data information that is explicit to the state of Colorado
- Formally establish, maintain and promote a ColoradoView consortium to serve remote sensing and GIS data users in the state of Colorado and the surrounding region
- Further advance the integration of remote sensing and GIS into research and education throughout the state
Sponsors and Design
ColoradoView is a member of the AmericaView Consortium. AmericaView is a network of state-based partners funded by a competitive grant from the U.S. Geological Survey. ColoradoView's web site was designed by ColoradoView Student Interns at Colorado State University.
