<p class="MsoNormal">Winter Greetings!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">At December’s Imagery Technical Working Group meeting there was discussion about on-going efforts to improve and maintain access to data via cloud-based web services -- pertinent to the Imagery TWG in regards to NAIP data.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This <a href="http://www.uidaho.edu/newsevents/item?name=ui-isu-partnership-gives-public-and-researchers-access-to-idaho-maps">
news item</a> from the University of Idaho highlights the collaborative partnerships that are on-going between the University of Idaho’s
<a href="http://inside.uidaho.edu/">INSIDE Idaho</a> (II), Idaho State University’s GIS Training and Research Center (<a href="http://giscenter.isu.edu/data/index.htm">ISU TReC</a>), Idaho National Laboratory (INL),
<a href="https://www.northwestknowledge.net/">Northwest Knowledge Network</a> (NKN) and others.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Specific to the Imagery TWG discussions last month, the data center at INL continues to be available to ISU TReC as the primary source for data and the data center at the NKN will be used by ISU TReC in the event of an outage at INL. Discussions
are taking place among Universities and INL to improve access to data.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Additional updates and news will be distributed through the Imagery TWG or this ListServ as they are made available.<o:p></o:p></p>
