Funding is provided to the University of Colorado - Boulder for a workshop intended to assemble users of NEON data in an effort to stimulate research collaborations across NEON data themes and initiate the building of a 'NEON User Community.' An actively engaged NEON user community will stimulate and coordinate wider community interest around the research use and wider societal benefits of the Observatory. A workshop utilizing the 'unconference' model aims to have participants identify near- and long-term collaborative opportunities to utilize NEON infrastructure and data. Both NEON infrastructure and data will provide the context for the generation of novel, exciting, collaborative research. The workshop will contribute to the building of the community of NEON users. The participant recruitment plan presented enhances the assembly of a diverse group of NEON users by targeting different career stages, research foci, and types of academic institutions, among other demographic traits. The organizers for this 'unconference' will expand participation beyond the 100 selected attendees by encouraging remote attendance. Essentially, the workshop seeks to assemble current users of NEON and provide the foundation for building the community of future users.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

向科罗拉多大学提供资金，用于旨在组装霓虹灯数据的用户的研讨会，以刺激跨霓虹灯数据主题的研究合作，并启动“霓虹灯用户社区”的构建。一个积极参与的霓虹灯用户社区将激发和协调对研究使用和更广泛的社会福利的更广泛的社区兴趣。利用“非会议”模型的研讨会旨在让参与者确定使用霓虹灯基础架构和数据的近期和长期协作机会。霓虹灯基础架构和数据都将为产生新颖，令人兴奋的协作研究提供背景。研讨会将有助于建立霓虹灯用户的社区。提出的参与者招聘计划通过针对不同的职业阶段，研究重点和学术机构的类型以及其他人口特征，从而增强了各种霓虹灯用户的组装。这个“不参加会议”的组织者将通过鼓励远程出勤率来扩大超越100名参与者的参与。从本质上讲，研讨会旨在召集现有的霓虹灯用户，并为建立未来用户的社区提供基础。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是值得通过基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛影响的评估标准来通过评估来获得支持的。
