  • Develop maps or other cartographic products using NASA satellite data over the Baltimore/Washington DC and P.G. County region.
  • Work with local stakeholders to communicate science and to build capacity to use new data sets for local/regional applications and climate resilience efforts.
  • Communicate findings with the science community and stakeholders via presentations and written work.
