In early January, the Core Team received hands-on training with Planon, and team members now have full access to a development (\u201cdev\u201d) website being built for UVM. A sampling of UVM facilities and space data has been uploaded to the dev site so that we have &#8220;real&#8221; (and familiar) data to work with.
