Are you a faculty member or researcher at CU Boulder?
Join Earth Lab as an affiliate and propose a project of mutual interest and let's write a proposal together to get funding.
Semi-weekly on Tuesdays at 11:00 AM MT, speakers bring new perspectives and present their work in the field of Environmental Data Science (EDS).
Earth Lab's newsletter, Reflectance, issues quarterly and provides summaries and features of Earth Lab's activities. We believe in communicating our science to stakeholders and a broader audience - scientists and non-scientists alike.

For our future industry and federal partners.
Collaborate with us.
Work with us to identify problems and questions related to environmental change or commercial opportunities that emerge from data-rich opportunities and research frontiers.
Do you have environmental data or an analytical challenge that you want us to explore?
We have had several successful examples of this type of collaboration. Check out these projects as examples of adding value to the Earth observing enterprise: the Tap Lab collaboration, the Ball Aerospace collaboration, the DigitalGlobe partnership and the Newmont Mining partnership.
Do you have funding to use for a sponsored research project?
Other ways to engage with Earth Lab include sponsoring Earth Lab research or co-sponsoring a postdoc or graduate student to do novel, innovative science. Reach out to us if you have a project idea.
