GENERAL NOTES
Text of Note
"The 2011 Summer BASC summer study focused on current and emerging forecasting and monitoring technologies for the urban environment, and sought input and feedback from diverse communities of scholars, technology, providers, and users of such information. A planning committee, constituted by BASC and the National Research Council (NRC), developed the workshop agenda, selected participants who contributed presentations and took part in plenary and small group discussions, and synthesized the discussions into this report. The workshop was held July 27-28, 2011 at the J. Erik Jonsson Center of the National Academy of Sciences, in Woods Hole, MA." -- p.ix
