ASPRS RECOGNIZED AS AN O*NET ALLY
We’re proud to announce that the American Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ASPRS) is now recognized as an O*NET Ally in collaboration with the U.S. Department of Labor.
Through our participation in the O*NET Data Collection Program, ASPRS is helping support a nationally recognized resource that provides valuable occupational information across industries. As an O*NET Ally, ASPRS will be featured on O*NET OnLine and included in the official O*NET Ally listing.
We’re honored to contribute to this important initiative and to support the advancement of workforce data and resources.
About O*NET
The O*NET Program is the nation’s primary source of occupational information. Valid data re essential to understanding the rapidly changing nature of work and how it impacts the workforce and U.S. economy. From this information, applications are developed to facilitate the development and maintenance of a skilled workforce.
At the core of the project is the O*NET database, encompassing over 900 occupation profiles and covering more than 55,000 jobs across the U.S. economy. Each profile provides a comprehensive overview of worker attributes and job characteristics. By combining standardized measures with occupation-specific details, the database supports both across-occupational comparisons and in-depth exploration of individual roles. The O*NET database is publicly available at no cost and is continuously updated using a wide variety of sources and methodologies. Millions of individuals, businesses, researchers, and developers rely on O*NET each year through platforms such as O*NET OnLine, My Next Move, My Next Move for Veterans, Web Services APIs, and numerous other public and private applications. These resources play a vital role in helping individuals identify training and job opportunities, and enabling employers to connect with the skilled workers needed to remain competitive.
The Occupational Information Network (O*NET) is developed under the sponsorship of the U.S. Department of Labor/Employment and Training Administration (USDOL/ ETA) external site through a grant to the North Carolina Department of Commerce
