Definition
- Special Projects, a unit within the Ocean Service's Management and Budget Office, is a focal point for providing NOS and NOAA Program and Staff Offices with planning, data synthesis and assessment, and advanced technical services (e.g., GIS and web mapping, database development, and information visualization tools). Special Projects' primary goal is to promote integration of program capabilities within and across NOS and NOAA to ensure more effective and efficient delivery of products and services to the coastal stewardship community. Special Projects works to build capacity within NOAA and NOS by collaborating with internal partners to define problems and issues, identify information needs, assemble and synthesize relevant data, develop strategies, evaluate options, and develop products and results that contribute and support better coastal resource management decision-making. Special Projects also provides NOS with a quick response capability to anticipate and respond to em erging opportunities to further the coastal stewardship mission.
