Successful project tracking requires agreements on data standards and integration points. This allows LCCs to identify and assess funded research projects at regional and national scales.
For landscape-level analyses to succeed, researchers need data portals and catalogs to interact at many levels. This way users can discover and use distributed science products.
Future landscape-scale analyses will rely on more and larger datasets, more computationally intense models, and an ever increasing rate of data inputs and outputs. Integration activities must keep pace with these needs.
