The purpose of the LEAD Research and Operations Community is to focus on issues related to meteorology and computer science research and applications, particularly those requiring advanced cyberinfrastructure capabilities that otherwise are not available. This learning community will foster an interaction between the basic and applied research communities utilizing LEAD capabilities and LEAD developers.
Goals:
- Provide service to the operations research community in terms of access to data, complex tools, workflow capabilities, and a complete information technology infrastructure.
- Facilitate and engage in ongoing communication and consultation based on implementation results in order to meet the needs of meteorology research and operations.
- Create LEAD enabling environments that identify appropriate and related initiatives to ensure a collaborative effort to improve access to an information technology infrastructure.
