Unidata Users Committee
About the Committee
The Unidata Users Committee, composed of university
representatives appointed by the Policy Committee chair, is
the primary mechanism for gaining scientific feedback on
the effectiveness of the Unidata Program. Appointments
reflect the range of large and small colleges and
universities with undergraduate and graduate emphases where
Unidata systems are in use.
The Users Committee meets a minimum of twice yearly and
reports to the Policy Committee; its members are appointed
for three years. The committee is charged with three
tasks:
- Determining the attitudes of the user community
toward the Unidata program;
- Soliciting suggestions for additions to the data
streams and software products; and
- Facilitating the exchange of ideas among users on
the Unidata Program and its systems.
To nominate yourself or a colleague for membership on
the Unidata Users Committee, use our
nomination form.
Unidata Users Workshops are five-day events, every three
years, to introduce new topics, such as operational and
experimental observations in geoscience education. Workshop
themes originate in Unidata's Users Committee and focus on
new concepts or tools for education or research or both.
Lectures by experts and hands-on lab instruction create a
relaxed, active learning atmosphere among peers.
Next Users Committee Meeting
The next Users Committee meeting is tentatively scheduled for 2-3 April 2012 in Boulder,
Colorado.
