The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is a federal agency focused on the condition of the oceans and the atmosphere. NOAA is a supplier of Environmental Information Products. Since one of the most important resources in our society is information, NOAA supplies information to its customers that pertains to the state of the oceans and the atmosphere.

The NOAA Office of the Chief Information Officer (OCIO) is responsible to ensure NOAA's programs make full and appropriate use of information technology. The NOAA OCIO oversees the expenditure of approximately $600 million each year in information technology (IT) spending alone - computer hardware, software, services, networking, and telecommunications. High priority is being focused on IT security, critical infrastructure protection and Homeland Security, in order to ensure the integrity and continuity of operations of NOAA systems, data, products, and services. High priority is given to the use of the internet, technology refresh for our technical infrastructure, infrastructure consolidation, geospatial service capabilities, data throughput capabilities, data archiving capacities, and program management for NOAA`s IT investment portfolio.
