About the InstituteThe National Institute of Invasive Species Science is a consortium of government and non-government organizations formed to develop cooperative approaches for invasive species science that meet the urgent needs of land managers and the public. Administratively housed at the U.S. Geological Survey Fort Collins Science Center in Colorado, the National Institute of Invasive Species Science provides a hub for invasive species science collaboration, coordination, and integration across agencies and disciplines.
The National Institute of Invasive Species Science includes Colorado State University (CSU), the Natural Resource Ecology Laboratory at CSU, the USGS Fort Collins Science Center, NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, and many other partners concerned with managing invasive species.
The mission of the National Institute of Invasive Species Science is to work with others to coordinate data and research from many sources to predict and reduce the effects of harmful non-native plants, animals, and diseases in natural areas and throughout the United States with a strategic approach to information management, research, modeling, technical assistance, and outreach.
Our primary focus has been a research endeaver to develop innovative prototype cyberinfrastructure technologies in support of our mission. We are a research organization, and our website(s) powered by our Global Organism Detection and Monitoring System are intended as research products supporting our own research and that of our many partners. We have conducted several past projects at the National Institute of Invasive Species Science. These projects were funded and conducted by the Institute and its partners. However, they represent only a small number of research projects underway by our many partners at this time. Data from these partner projects have been contributed to our data commons / cyberinfrastructure. Finally, we also have a few examples that we hope you find interesting.
