Polar Orbiting Satellites Current Status KMA has three different sites for receiving data from polar-orbiting satellites. Seoul (KMA) : NOAA-12, 17, 18 Seosan (100 km southwest from Seoul) : NOAA-15, FY-1D Munsan (50 km northwest from Seoul) : Terra, Aqua On-going Since July 2004, the raw pass data of FY-1D are directly received. IR (Ch 4) images of FY-1D have been produced for forecast since October 2004. We are testing the L1B data to produce derived products from FY-1D. Future Plan KMA has the plan to receive data from the polar orbiting satellites of next generation. METOP (2007), NPP (2009), NPOESS (2012?-)
Polar Orbiting Satellites Images Images Providing images of VIS, IR in the area of Asia and Korea. Providing improved images using high-resolving spectral observation. Providing true color composite images for detect fire and Asian dust. AQUA MODIS NOAA AVHRR

Weekly Composite of AVHRR Weekly Composite of MTSAT-1R Products-SST Both MTSAT-1R and NOAA data are used to derive the SST field. Weekly composite data are provided for SST field. High resolution SST field shows several benefits in the NWP model.
FOG FOG NOAA IR NOAA Near IR Products-Fog detection • Method • KMA uses NIR (3.9 m) to detect fog. • Dual Channel Difference (DCD) Method is used to detect fog.
Retrieval Processes of ATOVS Retrieval Program AAPP (ATOVS and AVHRR Processing Package, v5.2, NWP SAF) : Produce L1d data IAPP (International ATOVS Processing Package, v2.1, SSEC) : Retrieve L2 data Retrieved Data T, Td, WV, GPH, wind, Cloud, TPW, rain rate, total ozone, Tbb (HIRS, AMSU) etc.
Retrieved Products of ATOVS • Products • Data : T, Td, Wind, GPH • Layer : 1000, 950, 920, 850, 700, 500, 400, 300, 250, 200, 100 hPa (11 layers) 850hPa (T-Td) 200hPa (wind speed)
Verification of ATOVS (T, Td) • Each Profile • Sonde data at three points over Korea are used for the comparison of each profile. • Providing the characteristics of ATOVS for each weather case. Large difference of ATOVS in the case of inversion layer.
Verification of ATOVS (T, Td) • Weekly Average • Bias and RMSE for every week at three points are produced and displayed in intranet. • Providing more systematic errors of ATOVS. Dew point temperature profile Bias = 10C RMSE = 15C Maximum at around 300hPa Temperature profile Bias = 0.5C RMSE = 1.5C

Background and history • It was discussed at APSDEU-6 that ATOVS data would be exchange in Asia-Pacific area. • It was decided that Tokyo and Beijing would be the intra-regional data centers. • First exchange test within A-P area would have been finished till the end of 2005. • KMA has started the detailed discussion to implant RARS system with JMA since May 2006. • Format and telecommunication method for ATOVS data exchange was finalized according to the discussion with JMA. • KMA prepared the encoding and decoding program for ATOVS data during June 2006. • KMA debugged errors in BUFR data to be ready for data exchange from July to early August 2006. • KMA finished to produce ATOVS BUFR data to be exchanged with JMA by August 2006
Current Status and Future Plan • Data to be exchanged : ATOVS AAPP L1C (HIRS, AMSU-A, AMSU-B) • Data format : Compressed BUFR • Telecommunication : GTS between Seoul and Tokyo • Data from Seoul to Tokyo : 1 HRPT station (Seoul) • Data from Tokyo to Seoul : 9 HRPT station (2 Japan, 3 China, 4 Australia) • First test exchange succeeded on 15 September between Seoul and Tokyo. • Data exchange for routine operation would be performed since 20 September. • Exchanged ATOVS data will be utilized in regional NWP model
