  1. Local Office Perspective of AWIPSII Daniel Nietfeld Science and Operations Officer NOAA/NWS/WFO Omaha, Nebraska NOAA Satellite Science Week

  2. WFO Omaha History with AWIPSII • Collaboration with Raytheon Omaha starting fall 2006 • Installed full AWIPSII side by side with AWIPS1 in July 2011 for parallel OT&E • Switched over to AWIPSII permanently Nov. 2011 • Continue as a Field OT&E site and ramping up WFO OAX AWIPSII R2O/O2R Testbed NOAA Satellite Science Week

  3. WFO OAX Immediate Interests… • Day/Night band • Low clouds and fog detection • Convective Initiation • RGB • Simulated WRF imagery (All of this is currently available on AWIPS1) NOAA Satellite Science Week

  4. NPP VIIRS Day-Night 0753Z pass March 11 NOAA Satellite Science Week

  5. NPP VIIRS Day-Night Color Table Enhancement Snow Cover 0753Z pass March 11 NOAA Satellite Science Week

  6. NOHRSC NPP VIIRS Snow Cover Overnight Forecaster was able to adjust temperature forecast based on snow cover NOAA Satellite Science Week

  7. Export to KMZ NOAA Satellite Science Week

  8. NPP VIIRS “Fog” Product

  9. Convective Initiation • Convective Initiation Project • COMET GOES-R PG Cooperative Project • WFO OAX and Univ. of Nebraska Lincoln • UW CTC and UAH SATCAST products • Fusion with environmental parameters (RAP) NOAA Satellite Science Week

  10. WFO OAX Immediate Interests… • Day/Night band • Low clouds and fog detection • Convective Initiation • RGB • Simulated WRF imagery (All of this is currently available on AWIPS1) NOAA Satellite Science Week

  11. Next AWIPSII Steps(We’re ready to put our modernized workstation to use) • Proper data ingest (SBN preferred, but LDM OK) • Proper display (plugins) • RGB manipulation capabilities • Data fusion capabilities • NPP Soundings If we put this data into the hands of Forecasters, GOOD THINGS will happen!!
