United States Geological Survey
Formed in 1879, the USGS is widely considered the world’s authoritative provider of impartial scientific information on ecosystem and environmental health, natural hazards, natural resources, climate and land-use change, and the core science systems that help us provide timely, relevant, and useable information. By integrating the diverse scientific expertise of a team of over 3,000 of the best and the brightest technicians, the USGS is able to understand complex natural science phenomena and provide scientific products that lead to solutions. As the United States’ largest water, earth, and biological science and civilian mapping agency, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) collects, monitors, analyzes, and provides scientific understanding about natural resource conditions, issues, and problems. The diversity of USGS’s scientific expertise enables it to carry out large-scale, multi-disciplinary investigations and provide impartial scientific information to resource managers, planners, and other customers.
