The Cooperative Observers Climatological Network was created in 1880. The program is currently administered by the National Weather Service, a line office of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, an agency within the Department of Commerce. One of the responsibilities of the National Weather Service is to take meteorological observations which are used to record the climate of the United States. The National Weather Service relies heavily on a vast network of cooperative observer volunteers to achieve this objective.
