There are many divisions of NASA that share interests with Public Lab. Here are just a few:

Earth Science

SERVIR

DEVELOP

Mission in Brief: DEVELOP addresses community concerns relating to environmental issues. Does this by utilizing NASA Earth Observations

Model: Link advanced students and young professionals with local gov, state gov, regional gov, federal gov, academia, international partners, and NGOs during 10 week terms of intensive research.

Full description: The Applied Sciences' DEVELOP National Program is a dual capacity building internship that addresses environmental and public policy issues through interdisciplinary research projects that apply NASA Earth observations to community concerns around the globe. DEVELOP bridges the gap between NASA Earth Science and society, building capacity in both its interns and partner organizations to better prepare them to handle the challenges that face our society and future generations. "DEVELOP is an incubator for applied NASA Earth science projects."

How we might work together: a possible working relationship could be of three types -- 1A. A DEVELOP project leads to a Public Lab follow-up 1B. A Public Lab project could engage DEVELOP for an advanced research component. 2. A real collaborative project where we plan the collaboration and partnership from the start, including possible Public Lab coming to Develop with an existing project.
