The National Aeronautics and Space
Administration (NASA) has developed a program to help meet the needs of potential users of
geospatial technologies. It seeks to join the missions of the NASA Office of Earth Science
and NASA Space Grant with U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). The program seeks to
implement a Geospatial Extension Specialist in every state within the Cooperative State
Research, Education, and Extension Service of a Land Grant University. The Specialist then
characterizes the needs of the different constituencies in the state and works with them
to design solutions that meet their informational needs within their budget and staffing
constraints.
Nebraska’s Geospatial Extension Program Nebraska’s Geospatial Extension Program is a result of a partnership between University of NE at Omaha (which houses Space Grant) and the University of Nebraska at Lincoln (the Land Grant University).
