About this organisation

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is a US government agency responsible for understanding and protecting the nation's natural environment and resources. As a key player in the administration of the nation's oceans, atmosphere, and space-based systems, NOAA's work intersects with the global space governance ecosystem through its management of satellite-based weather forecasting, ocean and atmospheric research, and the nation's interests in space-based Earth observation.
