Terraform Command was an agency of the United Federation of Planets that was responsible for the coordination and implementation of the terraforming of planets.
Because the agency was part of the Federation, Terraform Command was required to establish which planets were both devoid of life and incapable of developing life naturally. Only these planets could be considered for terraforming. They worked with Starfleet in planning exploratory missions to determine this. (TNG: "Home Soil")
In 2364, Terraform Command asked the USS Enterprise-D to visit the terraformers on Velara III, in order to investigate the erratic communications coming from the Velara Base there, and the subsequent concern that was raised about the welfare of the base's personnel. (TNG: "Home Soil")
In 2365, the USS Constantinople was on special assignment for this agency. This agency was listed on the Starship Deploy Status chart that was on display in the courtroom of Starbase 173. (TNG: "The Measure Of A Man", okudagram)
