  1. Decision Support Systems: Introduction Science Advisory Committee Meeting 26 – 28 August, 2014 National Space Science and Technology Center, Huntsville, AL

  2. Decision Support System • “a computer-based information system that supports business or organizational decision-making activities” (Wikipedia, 2014) • Varies depending on end-users • Lack of integration into DSS can be the death of a product in R2O • Thankfully, DSS is trending towards open-standards such as Hierarchical Data Format (HDF) and Open GIS Consortium (OGC)

  3. Decision Support Systems Science & Research and Development Product Generation Products Team Transition Team Assessment Training Presentation Delivery Begin delivery DSS End-user • Integration into DSS is critical to success in R2O • Historically used “backdoor” method to get data in AWIPS through LDAD • Bandwidth to NWS Offices has been an issue • End goal of R2O is fully transitioned product, for AWIPS that means SBN delivery or Data Delivery

  4. DSS Integration Levels • Non-Integratede.g. SPoRT Webpage • Partially Integratede.g. KML products for Google Earth • Fully Integratede.g. AWIPS products • Focus of SPoRT is to obtain “Full Integration” into end-users DSS where possible Level of Integration Maintenance and development cost Level of Integration Impact and amount of use

  5. Supported Decision Support Systems WFO/RFC • Web Based DSS • SPoRT Website • Google Earth • FTP • NWS DSS • Full Integration • Evolving Landscape • Continue to support AWIPS I • Consolidation of platforms • New system more extensible • Implementing new technologies to increase flexibility and efficiency of DSS integration • Common deliver techniques such as LDM • Open Standards for formats • Formats that have wider usage that single end-user AWIPS I AWIPS II WFO Perspective RFC Perspective National Centers NAWIPS National Centers Perspective

  6. Trends in Support by DSS AWIPS II AWIPS I Number of end-users OGC/Mobile Devices Web AWIPS II NCP NAWIPS-I Time

  7. Focus of DSS • Main focus on NWS AWIPS I and AWIPS II • Exploration of new technologies to allow delivery to new partner’s DSS • Strategic growth into new technologies and DSSs by using widely supported standards

  8. DSS Presentations • Experimental Products Development Team (Jason Burks) • SPoRT Products in AWIPS II (Kevin McGrath) • Future Decision Support System Activities (Jason Burks)
