Costs and Travel: SESYNC will provide funding for travel, lodging, and meals for 30 on-site participants
Who Should Apply: Scientists seeking funding from the National Science Foundation (NSF) with all levels of experience using remote sensing data (experts to novices).
Application Deadline: Applications for this workshop have now closed. 

This 3-day workshop will seek to address several systemic problems that currently limit convergent research that uses the highest remote sensing technology to study problems at the interface of ecology, land change science, and social science.

Participants will develop and gain an enhanced understanding of NEON AOP data and previously developed workflows and computational tools. They will also help scope future needs for workflow development and relevant data management/sharing considerations. Outcomes of the workshop will include the establishment of a shared vision for how NEON-AOP data and future space-based hyperspectral resources could be used in socio-environmental (S-E) synthesis.  This preparatory activity will introduce participants to ways to plan for and respond to a future SESYNC request for proposals for interdisciplinary Pursuits that may use NEON-AOP data for S-E synthesis. The workshop will also prepare participants to respond to NSF Macrosystems for the use of NEON data and to contribute to the development of social science applications relevant to NASA’s planned Surface Biology Geology mission.
