The National Renewable Energy Laboratory will host a free webinar Dec. 16 demonstrating how to use the BioEnergy Atlas tools.
The U.S. DOE’s Bioenergy Technologies Office funded the BioEnergy Atlas tools, which include the BioFuels and BioPower Atlases. These tools are designed as a first pass visualization tool that allows users to view many bioenergy and related datasets in Google Maps. Users can query and download map data and view incentives and state energy data, as well as select an area on the map for estimated biofuels or biopower production potential.
The webinar will review the data source and date of bioenergy data layers. The NREL team will show users how to view and download data behind the map; how to view state energy data and incentives; and how to view and edit potential biofuel or biopower production in a geographical location.
Register for the webinar, to be held Dec. 16 from 1 pm to 2 pm Central time, by clicking here.
