  21. (SNPP) Operational Applications Ash plume • ATMS and CrIS SDRs provided in near real-time to NWP Centers: NCEP, EUMETSAT/ECMWF, CMC – data are re-broadcast via GTS and EUMETcast. • Select VIIRS imager (375m resolution) channels sent to NWS Alaska Region via AWIPS Satellite Broadcast Network (SBN) – used in analysis for aviation, marine and public forecasts above 600 North and for sea ice analysis. • Plans in the near future are to add the Near Constant Contrast that will cover the entire US, Alaska, Puerto Rico and Hawaiian region • S-NPP imagery (moderate channels and DNB) from direct readout used by NWS Alaska Region Forecast Offices (Anchorage & Fairbanks). Volcanic ash plume (Kamchatka Peninsula) Image of Alaska (day-night band)

  22. NOAA Partnered Update:Global Change Observation Mission (GCOM) W-1 • The GCOM-W1 launched May 18, 2012 and is the first satellite for the GCOM-W series • The AMSR2 continues Aqua/AMSR-E observations • The NOAA JPSS Office (NJO) is providing funding to operationally generate and make available AMSR2 SDR and EDR products to support NOAA’s needs • APID Sorted Data Files delivered via sFTP from Svalbard to NSOF- July 2012 • RDRs generated in IDPS and delivered to CLASS • Delivery of RDRs to OSPO ESPC (i.e., NDE)- March 2013 • Pre-operational - OSPO ESPC performs generation of SDRs and EDRs • New products expected to go operational later this year GCOM W1 is 15-195 seconds ahead AQUA, and 370 seconds ahead CloudSat

  23. Product Distribution and Access (PDA) • Product Distribution Segment • Currently NDE, DDS & SATEPSDIST • PDA will replace all near real-time distribution except McIDAS/ADDE • Reduction of Stovepipes: • First foundational wall of a modern, sustainable distribution enterprise • Build for tomorrow: • A “Private Cloud” with processing speed of modular architectures; loosely-coupled and abstracted services; high bandwidth • Align with real user-access and data use paradigms of other 21st century data systems. (Secure; standards-based; intuitive; intelligent product servicing)

  24. PDA Implementation Schedule • Integration & Test (I&T) System at NSOF/CBU • Currently in place • Limited functionality primarily data transfer and security • Currently integrating users and data providers • Operational Systems • Full functionality • Primary system at NSOF – COOP site at CBU in Fairmont WV • Operational Readiness Review (ORR) planned for August of 2015 • Operations with S-NPP data will commence with JPSS Block 2.0 Operations date targeted for November 2015 – January 2016
