     "text": "NMFS Openscapes Champions program is a mentorship and professional development opportunity for individuals and research teams in NOAA Fisheries. Read blog posts about each NMFS Champions Cohort and other NMFS Openscapes activities.\n\n\n\nExample workflow analysis by one of the Fall 2022 NMFS Openscapes teams: left) current workflow and right) new workflow. See right figure for color legend. The red lines (left) were critical workflows of data or analyses that the team identified as the key targets for improving their workflow. These red workflows could be automated (coded) but were currently done manually, requiring high staff time and introducing errors due to the number steps involved. In addition, the team identified that all elements of the report were being assembled manually and this was inefficient and introduced unexplained differences between chapters. Workflows analysis is a key component of the Openscapes Champions program. Visualizing workflows and discussing problem areas allows teams to identify the critical problem areas and where to target improvements."
