Time: 1:00 PM ET
Date: June 9, 2009
The USMS Office will hold a webinar on June 9, 2009 as part of an ongoing effort to help ensure that measurement technologies keep pace with and support important technological innovations in the energy arena. Topics will include a brief overview of the USMS, results of the Biomass Sector Specific Assessment, and opportunities to participate in the measurement needs (MN) development.
Preliminary MNs for the biomass industry have been developed based on case studies, roadmaps, and other reports. We would like your input on the validity, relevance, and importance of these measurement needs and potential gaps. Data collection and participant feedback will continue after the webinar as part of an ongoing process.
This assessment is being conducted as part of an ongoing effort to help ensure that measurement technologies keep pace with and support important technological innovations. NIST and other USMS organizations will use this work to inform their own strategic decisions in support of U.S. innovation and competitiveness.
