6. Where to from here? Coordinate, Support, Leverage Testing Functional Threads Tests Mission Event Planning & Scheduling (FTT1A/B) Command Processing (FTT2A/B) Flight Vehicle Software Change / Load (FTT3) Telemetry Processing (FTT4A/B) Mission Administrative Info Handling (FTT5) Ingest SMD, RDR Generation and Routing (FTT6A/B) SDR & EDR Generation and Routing (FTT7) SDS Data Ingest (FTT8) SDS Radiometric Assessment (FTT9) SDS Geometric Characterization (FTT10) SDS Calibration Activities (FTT12) User Query, Order and Product Distribution (FTT 14) Encryption Key Checkout (FTT 15A/B, 16) HRD � APID Selection (FTT 19) Orbit Maintenance (FTT 21) Safe-Hold Autonomous Fail-Safe Occur. & Recovery (FTT 22) Anomaly Detection & Reaction (FTT 23) NPP Ground System Activation (FTT 24)

7. Where to from here? Generate a CCR to update requirements Integrate a schedule Prioritize Issues and develop work off plans. Peer MOR (Aug 27-28, 2008) MOR (November 2008) Mission readiness assessment review NCT 3 (June �09) Execute nominal mission data handling propagating data through the ground system with all 4 flight sensors on board the satellite and after installation of the ground system on-site (72 Hrs.) NCT 4 (TBD) Exercises mission configuration, 3 days in the mission life with all elements of ground segment. Real-time telemetry and SMD may be played back from local storage at the Svalbard station to C3S and IDPS using the operational links.

8. Schedule

9. Issues As Captured Need 28hrs of RDR data fall �08 Oct -Nov W/o this data systems may not be ready for NCT3 Not clear who was writing/describing some �unique� data products e.g., VIIRS resample SDRs A table of products, formats, and documentation source is needed. Xtalk issue may need to be revisited as related to to choosing I1 over M5 Coordinate build schedule plans w/ NPP Project SI&T as related GS Freeze It was not clear whether or not the build 3 schedule was acceptable with NPP SI&T.

13. Closing Remarks NPP SDS is a research tool for NPP EDR Evaluation Supports the NPP Science Team NPP SDS PEATE is implemented through leveraging off existing resources For Example: Ocean Color Data Processing, MODAPS, & OMI/TOMS NPP SDS Elements Land Ocean and SD3E and now CERES CARS can support handling CERES data for the NPP Mission. Reminder: Panel Members are requested to disposition RFAs immediately after the meeting
