The Great Lakes Observing System provides end-to-end data services that support science, policy, management, and industry in the Great Lakes.

Get Started

We're launching the Smart Great Lakes Initiative as part of our strategic plan for 2020-2025. The initiative exists to modernize an information ecosystem based on Great Lakes environmental data in order to improve understanding, use, and management of the lakes.
