SERVIR – A Partnership Connecting Space to Village

NASA/USAID SERVIR – A Partnership Connecting Space to Village
“NASA and USAID have accomplished a lot together. Launch of this important new hub in the SERVIR network, which includes SERVIR-Himalaya, SERVIR-Eastern and Southern Africa and the Applied Sciences Team projects in Mesoamerica, is certainly tangible proof that what we’re doing is working. We get a lot of questions about our Earth observation work at NASA. In fact, a lot of people aren’t even aware that it’s such a core function of the agency. But make no mistake, NASA is deeply committed to Earth science and the value it provides people around the globe. We have been since our founding.”

    Wow, Earth observation – from the ISS. That doesn’t mean it is better or worse than a satellite in Sun-synchronous orbit; there are pluses and minuses to every platform. But the value of what NASA does does not end with collecting data. It must be put to use, in the service of our community, our nation, and our world. This means seeking out lines of communication that do not end with publications or sales to industrial partners.
