GeoWEPP - People Involved

 

The GeoWEPP project is a collaborative research project at the Landscape-based Environmental System Analysis & Modeling (LESAM) Laboratory at the Department of Geography, University at Buffalo - the State University of New York (SUNY), Buffalo, New York.

 

The following people are currently involved in the GeoWEPP project, GeoWEPP ArcX development and outreach activities:

	Chris S. Renschler, NCGIA-UB-SUNY - GeoWEPP Project Initiator and Coordinator, GIS Programming
	Jim R. Frankenberger, USDA-NSERL - WEPP-TOPAZ Linkage Programming
	Dennis C. Flanagan, USDA-NSERL - WEPP Project Leader

	William J. Elliot, USDA-FS-RMRS - FS WEPP Project Leader,
