NOAA/NESDIS Himawari-8/9 Planning Keith Amburgey, NESDIS Michael Laufer, NESDIS John Paquette, NESDIS
H-8 Distribution/Dissemination Scheme Himawari-8/9 Commercial Telecommunication Satellite (CTS) MTSAT-2 C-band (4 GHz) raw data H-8 Level 1b 5 channels, MTSAT-2 Equiv. Level 1b HRIT 5 channels (until 2017) CTS Uplink JMA Pacific Region DRO Sites JMA Cloud Service Pacific Region DRO Sites Level 1b 16 channels SINET Internet2 NSOF/ESPC/PDA All imagery (including full resolution data)
Parallel Activities • NOAA & JMA agreed to use National Research and Education Network (NREN)/Internet2 to transmit the full 16 spectral channels from H-8 to the NSOF ESPC for further distribution to users • Formal data requirements (e.g., data formats, level 2 products) not established • Direct Readout Availability • Following commissioning of Himawari-8, MTSAT-2 HRIT data will be available via DRO till Himawari-9 commissioning, 2017 • NESDIS will reformat 3 channels to H8/9 LRIT imagery and disseminate it via GOES-West DRO • Himawari-8 (5 channels equivalent to MTSAT-2 at 10 min frequency) will be rebroadcast via a JMA supplied COMSAT • Data flow from NSOF to all NWS users (Pacific Region, Alaska Region, National Centers) addressed by the NOAA Integrated Dissemination Program (PM, Luis Cano) and subproject NWS Ground Readiness Project (PM, Brian Gockel) • Logical DoD data flow which potentially could connect to NWS networks, needs to be addressed through GRP
