Many of the projects and programs NGTEN members are involved with have outcomes or products that can be shared with others.  Some of them are also developed as pilots for geospatial technologies or to promote new programs.   Each GES specializes in the area they select when they entered into the NGTEN program.  Specialists often cross-populate between science and applications, as well as serve multiple state needs.  As a group, NGTEN also responds to areas of interest on the National level in accordance with the needs of the USDA, NOAA, and NASA.
