  2. Overview Operational Constellation Updates – GOES and POES Additional satellite activities New Products Transitioned ESPC Updates CIP Update 2

  3. Operational GOES Updates NESDIS Reorganization Satellite Status Critical Infrastructure Protection Status GOES/POES Consolidation New Products 3

  4. Operational GOES Updates GOES-12 Operational East Occasional thruster anomalies, occurring just after eclipse. Imager decontamination performed during Dec/Jan thruster anomaly. On-board fuel remaining to support mission until end of CY09. GOES-11 Operational West Engineers report better than expected battery recovery, no services shed from GOES-11 during Spring 09 eclipse. 4

  5. Operational POES Updates Operational Constellation Updates – GOES and POES Additional satellite activities New Products Transitioned Satellite Products in AWIPS Update ESPC Updates CIP Update User Services – Help Desk Update 5

  6. Operational POES Updates MetOp-2 Operational AM AMSU-A channel 7 noise continues to exceed specs. Operational ATOVS adjusted to use other channels (1/28/09). ASCAT vector files operationally produced sent to FNMOC (10/22/08). NOAA-18 Operational PM HIRS noise continues, ATOVS operating in a “No-HIRS” mode. NOAA began the delivery of NOAA POES SBUV Ozone Profiles to FNMOC on April 13 6

  7. Additional Satellite Activities GOES-10 “Pre” Operational as GOES-South America Sounder filter wheel stalled on 2/8/09. Sounder has been unable to recover since, imager ok. GOES-10 slated to be de-orbited in December 2009. GOES-13 as Backup SMG and NESDIS request to keep GOES-13 imaging/soundings until 4/15/09. GOES-O launch set no earlier than May 12 (was schedule for 4/28/09) Change of band 6 (13.3 mm) to 4 km. Post launch activities scheduled to begin September 09. PLT schedule (tentative) at: http://rammb.cira.colostate.edu/projects/goes-o/ 7

  8. Additional Satellite Activities Jason-2 Transition ESPC began delivery of Jason-2 data to NAVO 10/06/08. ESPC made Jason-2 available to general users on 12/15/08. SPSRB briefing to go operational on 3/18/09 for the nrt OGDRs. ESPC working with NCEP on the OGDR-BUFR (M. Mainelli). OSDPD Web site updated with documentation: http://www.osdpd.noaa.gov/ml/ocean/ssheight.html 8

  9. Additional Satellite Activities Near real-time MODIS Processing System The porting of the near real-time MODIS science algorithms from the old production servers NASA/GSFC to the NSOF Linux cluster was completed per the March 31, 2009 milestone MODIS now being processed completely out of ESPC at NSOF Distribution server is being upgraded at GSFC for delivery of products from NSOF for GSFC and DoD customers Testing of distribution of MODIS products from DAPE Gateway (formerly Shared Processing Program Gateway) to AFWA commenced on April 8. 9

  10. Additional Satellite Activities West side of track East side of track Ascending image with no correction Ascending image with no correction West side of track East side of track NOAA-19 AVHRR possible attitude/mounting error (yaw=0.11deg. and roll=0.1 deg) NOAA-19 AVHRR possible attitude/mounting error (yaw=0.11deg. and roll=0.1 deg) Ascending image with correction applied Ascending image with correction applied 10

  11. Additional Satellite Activities • NOAA-19 Update • NOAA-19 successfully launched 2/6/09 • Product processing problems • +VIS channels on with no IR channels caused IR calibration flags to be set. • +Some product VIS channel processing failed. • NESDIS began delivery of NOAA-19 AMSU-A, HIRS and MHS 1B data to FNMOC on March 10 • NOAA-17 LACs will be discontinued in favor of NOAA-19 LAC scheduling on 3/31/09. • NOAA-19 test LACs began 3/10/09. • AVHRR 3A/3B switching initiated 3/19/09 1458Z. 11

  12. Additional Satellite Activities • NOAA-19 Operations Transition/Support • Svalbard (SV) Blind Orbit Support – improved data timeliness: • +Current SV operations supports: • --MetOp mission. • --Primary afternoon satellite – BO GAC only - currently NOAA-18. • --NOAA-19 on best effort basis. • +Switch to NOAA-19 operations SV BO support – date TBC (Launch + 90 days): • --Primary afternoon satellite – BO GAC only - NOAA-19. • --NOAA-18 on best effort basis. • NESDIS began treating NOAA-19 Level 1B as operational on 4/12/09 • Most other product schedule to go operational May 7 but actual date will be determined after POES Constellation Meeting on April 16. 12

  13. New Products Transitioned • November 08: • Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) Polar Winds Products: • AVHRR Polar Winds use NOAA-15, 16, 17 and 18 GAC data to generate cloud track atmospheric wind vectors. • The product is provided in BUFR, McIDAS MD and TEXT format. 13

  14. New Products Transitioned • January 09: • GOES Surface and Insolation Product full disk (GSIP-fd) Product: • The GSIP-fd is a high spatial resolution solar radiation product to be used in models for predicting coral bleaching and the hydrological cycle. • Improvements: • +Increases spatial resolution to 1/8 x 1/8 degrees. • +Expands spatial coverage of oceanic regions. • +Thoroughly evaluates insolation over both ocean and land. • +Implements semi-automatic quality control of inputs, periodic calibration updates and quality-check of insolation output. • +Provide data needed for validation and forcing of NWP surface physics. 14

  15. New Product Transitioned • January 09: • Chesapeake Bay Regional Chlorophyll-a Product • +The MODIS/Aqua-derived Chesapeake Bay chlorophyll products are generated using a regionally-tuned algorithm and applying near-real-time model fields instead of climatology for atmospheric correction. • MERIS Ocean Color Product • +The European Space Agency agreed to allow CoastWatch to distribute MERIS/Envisat-derived ocean color products operationally. 15

  16. New Products Transitioned • February 09: • Blended TPW Products • The blended TPW products system merges the operational available TPW products from multi-sensors, including DMSP F-13 SSM/I , NOAA-15, 16, 17,18 and MetOp-A AMSU-A over ocean, and GPS and GOES Sounder over land areas in the Western Hemisphere, to provide a unified TPW and TPW anomaly product every hour - http://www.osdpd.noaa.gov/bTPW/ • Provided in HDF-EOS, McIDAS and AWIPS formats. 16

  17. New Products Transition • February 09: • MTSAT-1R Winds • +MTSAT-1R Winds use MTSAT-1R HRIT data to generate LWIR, Water Vapor, SWIR and Visible atmospheric wind vectors. • +MTSAT-1R Winds product covers the Western Pacific and extends beyond coverage offered by operational GOES-W Winds product. • +Provided in BUFR, McIDAS MD and TEXT format. 17

  18. DAPE Gateway Update: The DAPE Gateway Upgrade is schedule to be completed late April/ early May New Gateway will provide more horsepower for transfers User Notifications: Procedures updated to allow for consistent notifications on any outages, anomalies, or other events affecting flow of products to users New templates generated Work to be completed Q2/2009 to have all notices sent out to NWSTG/AWIPS using the NESDIS admin messages (NOUS72 KNES, NOUS71 KNES or xxxADMNES and xxxADANES) DAPE Gateway and Help Desk Update

  19. CIP Update • Phase 1.5: • +Issue with blind GACs from NOAA-18 was resolved and new test was performed with success 12/15 to 1/13. • Phase 2: • +Readiness review 4/3. • +IT testing scheduled for 3/30 – 4/2. • +Application testing scheduled for 4/6 – 5/6. • +User testing scheduled for 5/15 – 5/28. • Phase 3: • +Products currently being reviewed and validated. 19

  20. ESPC CIP Phase 2 Status • All Phase 2 equipment delivered & installed at Wallops Island, VA. • Family of Service (FOS), MSG, and MTSAT data feeds installed; amplification device required to increase MTSAT signal strength. • Additional 7 Terrabyte Storage Area Network (SAN) successfully install & tested despite numerous erroneous shipments from the vendor. • Infrastructure testing began on March 30, 2009 & was finished on April 2, 2009. Objectives included: • +Validate operational functions of CIP’s system that provides the base computational platform for the CIP applications. • +Validate network infrastructure. • +Test the lower-level application services e.g. OPUS (job scheduler & monitor) & the data Distribution Server (DDS). 20
