EPA envisions collaboration with other Federal Agencies such as NASA, NOAA, and DOE to create digital libraries of environmental monitoring data for the purpose of determining the health and potential for change in the Earth’s environmental systems. Likewise, EPA envisions access to computational models of environmental systems by partners in the states to collaborate in predicting the effects of potential regulations or existing environmental conditions.
Predictor: Information Infrastructure Technology and Applications (IITA) Task Group: High-Performance Computing and Communications Information Technology Subcommittee
