The NSF-funded Ocean Observatories Initiative Facility Board (OOIFB) will host an Imaging FlowCytobot (IFCB) Community Focus Group from June 18-20, 2025, at the University of North Carolina, Wilmington’s Center for Marine Science. The OOIFB would like to convene ~ 25 members of the IFCB community to engage in:
- An introduction and overview of the OOI-IFCB instrument and its data, demonstrating how users can access and download OOI data (example IFCB data products will be shared).
- Guided tutorials and hands-on exercises working with use-case scenarios.
- Key conversations about IFCB community expectations for the NSF OOI (infrastructure and data), and what the NSF OOI expectations may be for the community.
