Great Lakes Observing System Industry Day Agenda Attached The Great Lakes Observing System (GLOS) will be hosting an Industry Day workshop on November 15th at the Gleacher Center in Chicago, Illinois. As the Great Lakes regional component of the national Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOOS), GLOS will be leading efforts to coordinate and intensify observation and monitoring across the basin and the production of informational tools to deliver this information to users rapidly, accurately and dynamically. The GLOS Industry Day workshop is intended to inform both private and public-sector entities of innovative ways for their institutions to become involved in GLOS system design, development, and the creation of information-rich Great Lakes products. An updated Industry Day agenda is available at www.glos.us/industry/GLOS_IndustryDay_Flyer3.pdf . Panel presentations will focus on the status of observing systems at the national and Great Lakes levels, opportunities for industry involvement in GLOS, implications for the region's economy, and identification of GLOS user needs in a range of areas, including transportation and commerce, municipal water management, tourism, recreation and many others.
