WHO WE ARE 

Developed with support from the U.S. National Science Foundation's Research Coordination Network (RCN) program, our network connects scientists researching socio-environmental systems with communities seeking environmental outcomes. The Landscape Exchange Network seeks to coordinate the use of state-of-the-art remote sensing technology in landscapes surveyed by the National Ecological Observatory Network Airborne Observation Platform.
