About the organizer
The NOAA Daniel K. Inouye Regional Center (IRC) is a state-of-the-art 350,000-square-foot research facility built on a historic landmark site on Moku‘ume‘ume (Ford Island) in Honolulu, Hawaiʻi. The IRC encompasses the principles of a sensitive architectural intervention in a historic context—the careful preservation of two WWII fighter aircraft hangars and the insertion of a new building that complements and enhances the individual parts into a comprehensive whole—to create a facility that promotes and showcases NOAA’s mission and services to the people of the Pacific region. The facility consolidates over 700 NOAA staff from multiple line offices (NMFS, NWS, NOS, OMAO, and NESDIS) into a campus rooted in NOAA’s mission and the cultural traditions of the Pacific Region. The IRC includes wet and dry research laboratories, a dive center, a 24-7 tsunami warning operations center, research library, an auditorium, and a public exhibit space.
