These solutions provide new, improved information for more accurate, timely, and effective decisions.<\/p>\n<p>NASA Earth Action teams work with decision-makers representing:<\/p>\n<p>\u25c6Private sector, both small and large businesses\u00a0<br \/>\u25c6States and territories<br \/>\u25c6Municipalities<br \/>\u25c6Federally-recognized Tribes<br \/>\u25c6Nonprofits and community organizations<br \/>\u25c6Federal government agencies<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"hds-tabbed-section-tab desktop:display-flex\" data-tab-id=\"1\" role=\"tabpanel\" id=\"panel1-defining-impact\" aria-labelledby=\"tab1-defining-impact\" hidden=\"\">\n<div class=\"grid-col desktop:padding-right-5 padding-bottom-4 desktop:padding-bottom-0\">\n<p><h2 class=\"heading-29\">Defining Impact<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"p-md\">NASA Earth Action seeks to maximize its impact by extending proven solutions to new users, new geographies, and new thematic areas. That impact is defined in three ways:\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u25c6Sustained use of NASA data and tools by decision-makers<br \/>\u25c6Meaningful decisions and actions based on the insights those resources provide<br \/>\u25c6Tangible benefits resulting from decisions empowered by NASA data<\/p>\n<p>NASA Earth Action ensures that resources invested in NASA technology, missions, research, and data translate into practical, valuable results for society.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"hds-tabbed-section-tab desktop:display-flex\" data-tab-id=\"2\" role=\"tabpanel\" id=\"panel2-advancing-nasa\u2019s-mission\" aria-labelledby=\"tab2-advancing-nasa\u2019s-mission\" hidden=\"\">\n<div class=\"grid-col desktop:padding-right-5 padding-bottom-4 desktop:padding-bottom-0\">\n<p><h2 class=\"heading-29\">Advancing NASA\u2019s Mission<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"p-md\">NASA Earth Action helps deliver on NASA\u2019s <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/science.nasa.gov\/earth-science\/earth-science-to-action\/\">Earth Science to Action Strategy<\/a>, embracing three approaches:\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>User-centered Science<br \/><\/strong>Focuses on partner needs and engages them in concept, development, and implementation.
