  4. Indirect Travel Salaries+Fringe Data Purchase 2007 WInSAR Meeting WInSAR Proposal 2008-2010 • $100K from NASA/NSF per year • Expected $50K from USGS per year • Archivist (3 years, 0.25) • Software Developer (2 years, 0.5) • Remaining funds: data purchase, scientist travel to conference http://www.unavco.org/pubs_reports/proposals/winsar/2007/WINSAR07.pdf

  5. 2007 WInSAR Meeting Holdings Summary Ingested into UNAVCO WInSAR Node Searchable Catalog • ERS: 5,750 scenes (increase of 1,990 from December 2006) • Envisat: 468 scenes (increase of 120 from December 2006) • ~1,800 ALOS data pool at ASF http://winsar.unavco.org/search.php Non-Ingested Scenes (all added in 2007) • 78 ALOS • 26 Envisat Wide Swath • 10 Radarsat http://winsar.unavco.org/ancillary.php

  6. 2007 WInSAR Meeting Ordering Progress ESA • ERS • Backlog has been ordered, most delivered. • New orders submitted monthly • Delivery is usually quick • ftp pickup from ESA • Envisat • Ordering slowed in 2007 due to billing and CAT-1 quota issues • Billing resolved and quota restriction lifted verbally • Test order in progress (“being quoted”) • About 450 scenes in queue to be ordered

  7. 2007 WInSAR Meeting Ordering Plans ESA • Continue ERS ordering • Users place requests through UNAVCO ERS request page: • http://winsar.unavco.org/ordering/search.php • Continue Envisat ordering • Users place requests by assembling your Eoli shopcart • e-mail to winsar@unavco.org • Order status posted to http://winsar.unavco.org/env_order_lists.php

  8. 2007 WInSAR Meeting Ordering Plans ALOS • Users place requests by assembling your selection as a CSV file • https://auig.eoc.jaxa.jp/auigs/en/top/index.html • Guest login • e-mail to winsar@unavco.org • UNAVCO submits the order to ASF • Order status page to be developed • Users sign ASF agreements • Data searchable through UNAVCO • Data available through ASF (and UNAVCO?) Ordering Plans RADARSAT • TBD

  9. 2007 WInSAR Meeting GeoEarthScope and WInSAR • Lots of data ordered from ASF for GeoEarthScope Targets • ASF ERS data • ASF RADARSAT data • ESA orders for GeoEarthScope Targets • Envisat tasking and orders • ERS tasking and orders • http://geoes-insar.unavco.org/dataorders.php • Once ingested, data available to investigators through “Minicat” process

  10. 2007 WInSAR Meeting 2007 Tasks Accomplished • WInSAR proposal submitted • On track with ESA billing, orders • ~2200 ERS/Envisat ordered, received, ingested • All available 2006 and 2007 funds used or committed for data orders, WInSAR scientist travel • Improvements to the UNAVCO WInSAR Catalog/Ingestion • Start/end frame for Envisat long strips into catalog • Improved frame assignments Envisat/ERS • Ingestion of ASF WInSAR ALOS datapool at ASF into searchable catalog (need to develop a method to keep updated) • Conducted a survey of software/systems/data usage in the community to guide future directions

  11. 2007 WInSAR Meeting 2007 Tasks Accomplished (cont’d) • Improvements to the UNAVCO WInSAR Website • Start/end frame and start/end time displayed as well as filesize

  12. 2007 WInSAR Meeting 2007 Tasks Accomplished (cont’d) • Improvements to the UNAVCO WInSAR Website • ALOS datapool at ASF searchable (need to develop a method to keep updated) • NEW Google Earth KML available with search results • Envisat orders status page • Pages with links to related data, documents, publications, additional software – lots of additional information Mission selection includes ALOS
