  2. Lessons from other Teams • Interaction with VIIRS SDR Teams: • We are available to check VIIRS EDR Imagery when asked by SDR Teams. For example, the potential mis-alignment issue in VIIRS SDR Imagery has been explored and dismissed by the EDR Imagery Team. • Need to pay more attention to the many details that the SDR Teams handle: For example, geo-location and radiance/reflectance fixes, and when they took place. • South Atlantic Anomaly worth looking at to see if it affects EDR Imagery • Concern that reprocessing potentially causes differences in same products at different PEATEs. • Interaction with other EDR Teams: • Use of Imagery at NIC by Cryo Team (Sean Helfich) • Use of GTM remapping by SST Team (Sasha et al).

  3. Shared Issues • Lower VIIRS latency is needed by Imagery and Cloud Teams in particular, but also by some, but not all, of the other Teams. • Alternative is Direct Broadcast, but that’s not available globally. • Pursue more DB sources for VIIRS. • DNB/NCC is widely used and sought • Imagery Team can be a source of help for users. • There is VIIRS training/information available.

  4. Future Plans • Continue to pursue lower latency Imagery thru GRAVITE • Explore new Direct Broadcast sources for lowest latency data: • Sites in AK, HI, OR, and FL. • Pursue missing M-bands as EDRs: • This limits image products, including RGB combinations, one being true-color imagery. • Involve additional Imagery users: • Depends on data availability issues, such as lower latency and sufficient bandwidth to carry VIIRS Imagery. • Push for Terrain-Corrected (TC) geo-locations for NCC Imagery.
