US Federal and International Participation in Landsat Science Team

[John L Dwyer]

Dear Colleagues -

The United States Geological Survey (USGS), with National Aeronautics and 
Space Administration (NASA), is requesting non-monetary proposals from 
qualified Federal government and international scientists and engineers 
interested in serving as members of the Landsat Data Continuity Mission 
(LDCM) Landsat Science Team. Up to eight Federal and international 
scientists will be selected through a competitive process to serve on the 
Landsat Science Team and contribute advice based on pertinent research and 
experience.  Those selected must demonstrate financial support from their 
home agency or organization since USGS contracting policies preclude 
funding salaries for Federal government and international expert 
scientists.  Those selected will join eight additional scientists and 
engineers from academia, non-governmental organizations, and industry that 
are being selected through a separate solicitation.  The Landsat Science 
Team appointments are expected to be five years in duration. This will 
ensure science team continuity from the pre-launch planning period through 
the first operational year of the LDCM mission.  More detailed information 
may be found in the attached document.

In addition, the USGS will be selecting and funding an additional 8 
Landsat ScienceTeam members from U.S. institutions, organizations, or 
private
enterprise.  Links to the solicitation notice may be found at  (

Regards,

John
