    The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has put out a call for public feedback on information collection practices related to geospatial metadata. This request invites comments on the necessity, accuracy, and methods of collecting such data, with the goal of minimizing the public's reporting burden. Public comments will be accepted until March 30, 2021, and will be considered in the agency's submission to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for approval. NOAA's tools for collecting metadata support various scientific research fields and aim to enhance understanding and reuse of geospatial data.

    Simple Explanation

    NOAA is asking people to share their thoughts on how they collect information about maps from space. They want to make sure it's done in a way that's helpful and not too hard for everyone.

    The Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) of the Department of Commerce has announced it is conducting the BE-9 survey, which is mandatory for U.S. representatives of foreign airlines that have significant revenue or expenses in the U.S. The survey gathers data on these airlines' revenues, expenses, and passenger numbers. U.S. entities that meet the criteria will be contacted by BEA and must submit their reports within 30 days after each quarter. The survey aims to help analyze U.S. trade in transport services and is authorized by federal law.

    Simple Explanation

    The government wants certain foreign airlines that make or spend a lot of money in the U.S. to tell them about their earnings and costs every three months, so they can understand how this affects trade and the economy. However, the rules might be confusing about who exactly needs to report, and they don't clearly say what happens if someone doesn't follow them.
