They're not listed in the department's acronym list and site search reveals very little relating to NOOS (doubt they're NOS - National Ocean Service). "National Ocean Service (NOS)--conducts research on health of the coastal environment, which translates into healthy coastal economics.
From gathering data about the coast to producing marine and aeronautical charts for safe navigation, NOS is at the forefront of merging coastal resources with a forward-moving economy."

Hi list Does anyone have any idea what NOOS stands for in connection with the US Department of Commerce?
The letters NOOS was spotted in a round badge -- NOOS in the middle, US Department of Commerce along the circle in the bottom - four words in the top -- but I don't know which.
Any help?
Yours Bo Elkjaer, Denmark
