About West Virginia View
West Virginia View is a consortium of public, private, and non-profit remote sensing organizations. We are a member of AmericaView.
The West Virginia View consortium has the following objectives:
- Establish the formal linking of, and cooperation between, the major remote sensing organizations in West Virginia, and promote community outreach by these organizations.
- Share existing and purchase additional remotely sensed data (as permitted by data purchase agreements), and develop the remote sensing infrastructure through improved access to data, computer resources, and field equipment.
- Establish a website for promoting remote sensing activities in the state, sharing data, and providing educational resources.
- Host statewide remote sensing conferences and promote awareness.
WV View is supported by AmericaView and the U.S. Geological Survey under Grant/Cooperative Agreement No. G18AP00077.
