*Summary: *Three new space missions, COSMIC-2, GOLD and ICON, in
collaboration with a

growing network of ground-based observatories, provide remarkable
avenues for new

investigations of the geospace system. These new capabilities present
an unprecedented

opportunity and a revitalized capacity for solving significant
outstanding problems in

near-Earth space weather. The two NASA missions, ICON and GOLD, observe the

thermosphere and ionosphere using optical and in-situ instruments. The
international

COSMIC-2 mission comprises a constellation of six satellites that map
the ionosphere

using GPS radio occultation, in-situ measurements, and beacon signals
for space to ground

measurements. Enhanced ground-based observatories, cubesats, and other
satellite

constellations, also provide essential new measurements. Combining
these tools to

effectively address questions in ion-neutral coupling and
upper-atmosphere dynamics

requires a comprehensive scientific strategy for broad community participation.

Workshop presentations discuss the space-based missions, complementary
ground-based

observations, modeling, and data synthesis.
