Globoccess has entered into a 5-year Cooperative Research and Development Agreement, “CRADA”, with the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), which authorizes Globoccess to install NOAA’s Science On a Sphere® (SOS) and/or SOSx at various facilities, train staff, and support them once installation is complete. The collaboration between Globoccess and NOAA also involves joint research and development in which Globoccess will provide input to NOAA about the user needs and developments within the fields of data display and visualization technologies. Globoccess works with NOAA to develop new user control features and other software enhancements based on user feedback.
