NPOESS Data Exploitation • IPO has asked NRL SSC to take lead in Ocean calval • Initial meeting July 08 with following participants • Bob Arnone (lead) and Paul Lyons (NRLSSC) • Alexander Ignatov (NOAA/NESDIS) • Peter Minnett and Bob Evans (RSMAS) • Doug May and Bob Coulter (NAVO) • First priority is to get a proxy VIIRS data stream • Working with Joe Zajic (NOAA/IPO) on software that will ingest MODIS data and convert it to proxy VIIRS data in real-time • the data will be formatted according to the IDPS SDR output specification in HDF5 and will have the MODIS channels spectrally transformed to resemble VIIRS channels • Allows those users getting MODIS data already to run conversion software rather than acquiring another datastream • Will be used for both SST and ocean color NDE
Future Altimeter Satellite data Altika (2010 - 2014) * Considerable assistance required to allow access of data from Indian Space Organization (INSO) and/or CNES * Currently no MOU/MOA exists Sentinel 3 (2012 - 2016) * Spacecraft and data availability still under development * Establish MOU/MOA with ESA to receive data; similar to Envisat agreement GFO-2 (2013 – 2019) • Launch in highly successful GeoSat/GFO 17 day ERM • Final Requirement Specs – RFP release 4th quarter 2009 • Anticipated Contract Award – 2nd quarter 2010
