This is InfoBank's primary page about CMG's Field Activity Collection System (FACS).

FACS encompases metadata collection before, during, and after a Field Activity.

FACS' metadata facilitates the sorting, grouping, and re-purposing of field activity information and its associated data.

The data and information produced by our program are multi-disciplinary and must be easily accessible to you, other research scientists, Government policy makers, and the public.

Developed and maintained by USGS CMG FACS Team.
