SECOORA is Celebrating 10-Years!
Wow! SECOORA is celebrating 10 years. From the beginning, our members, partners and supporters have helped SECOORA expand the Southeast coastal observing system. This continuing work is increasing awareness of the importance of coastal observing. SECOORA is extremely grateful for your support.
Coastal observing supports jobs, economic development, maritime safety and environmental health. Making these observing contributions for over a decade is a testament to both the value of the work, and the commitment of the SECOORA community. We thank you and cannot wait to celebrate.
Below are some of the anniversary activities underway, and information on how you can get involved!
SECOORA Data Challenge
SECOORA is looking to you – the next generation of coastal and ocean scientists, managers, decision makers, entrepreneurs – to help us create a new way to use and visualize Southeast coastal ocean data to tell a meaningful story or support decision-making.
SECOORA is seeking proposal submissions for new data visualizations, mobile applications, products or data synthesis tools that utilize existing publicly available Southeast coastal ocean data and information. Proposals should support individual and/or community needs for decision making. Learn more >
Kick off informational webinar for the SECOORA Data Challenge is February 22, 2017 – 12:30 PM. Register today.
