I. Abstract
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is committed to effectively performing the Agency's communication function in accordance with the Space Act Section 203(a)(3) to "provide for the widest practicable and appropriate dissemination of information concerning its activities and the results there of," and to enhance public understanding of, and participation in, the nation's space program in accordance with the NASA Strategic Plan. The Space Act of 1958, directs the Agency to expand human knowledge of Earth and space phenomena. Organizing outreach events is one way NASA intends to leverage excitement about the nation's space program and expand human knowledge of Earth and space phenomena. In order to organize effective outreach events and registration opportunities for members of the public, it is necessary to collect information from perspective guests and those that will check-in the guests at events. The NASA Special Events System is a tool to allow invitees to register for and check-in to NASA event opportunities (launch viewing, agency engagements, etc.) in a single location.
II. Methods of Collection
The NASA Special Events tool is a web-based application on a Salesforce platform that enables the NASA OCOMM team to manage guest information, communication, and reporting agency-wide. The intent of using electronic collection techniques is to increase the accuracy of information gathered and to streamline the process for guests and workforce alike.
