The Biomedical Operations and Research Office at the NASA John F. Kennedy Space Center has been supporting environmental monitoring and research since the mid-1970s. Program elements include monitoring of baseline conditions to document natural variability in the ecosystem, assessments of operations and construction of new facilities, and ecological research focusing on wildlife habitat associations. Information management is centered around development of a computerized geographic information system that incorporates remote sensing and digital image processing technologies along with traditional relational data base management capabilities. The proactive program is one in which the initiative is to anticipate potential environmental concerns before they occur and, by utilizing in-house expertise, develop impact minimization or mitigation strategies to reduce environmental risk.
自20世纪70年代中期以来，美国国家航空航天局约翰·F·肯尼迪航天中心的生物医学运营与研究办公室一直在支持环境监测和研究工作。项目内容包括监测基线条件以记录生态系统中的自然变化、评估运营情况和新设施建设，以及聚焦野生动物栖息地关联的生态研究。信息管理围绕一个计算机化地理信息系统的开发展开，该系统整合了遥感和数字图像处理技术以及传统的关系数据库管理功能。这个积极主动的项目旨在提前预测潜在的环境问题，并利用内部专业知识制定影响最小化或缓解策略，以降低环境风险。
