  1. HSEB Activities Update Jon Roe, Chief OHD/HL/HSEB PALs, OHD/HL/HSEB Semi-Annual HIC Meeting 30 January 2007

  2. Topics • HSEB quarterly newsletters • AWIPS software Adaptive & Corrective Maintenance • AWIPS software source code transfer • NEXRAD software development activities • AWIPS software development activities • AWIPS II news • HADS HSEB Activities Update

  3. HSEB Quarterly Newsletters • Issued 1 January, 1 April, 1 July, & 1 October • since mid-2004 • Announced: • via HSD-HIC-DOH e-mail list, RFC & AWIPS list servers • Location: • http://www.nws.noaa.gov/oh/hrl/hseb/hseb_newsletters.htm • Authors (HSEB PALs & Chief): • Larry Cedrone, Chris Dietz, Mark Fresch, Mark Glaudemans, Joe Gofus, Jon Roe • Today: • highlights from 1 January 2007 newsletter HSEB Activities Update

  4. AWIPS Software Adaptive & Corrective Maintenance • Raytheon assumed ACM responsibility for AWIPS baseline hydro software on 2 October 2006 • HSEB conducted 10 short weeks of Knowledge Acquisition Process (KAP) training in summer 2006 • not smooth, only partially successful, lingering questions • All software deficiencies: • must be reported to NCF or OCWWS/HSD • OCWWS/HSD assists NCF & field offices • first to Raytheon Application Support Maintenance (ASM) • HSEB may assist (currently much more than envisioned) • process still not well defined nor published HSEB Activities Update

  5. AWIPS Software Source Code Transfer • Raytheon took over AWIPS baseline hydro software source code “ownership” on 2 October 2006 • HSEB still working with Raytheon CM on code transfer and make-build details • not smooth, ability to make-build a release just recently achieved (for OB8.1), …sort of • Raytheon now holds source code baseline in Serena ChangeMan Dimensions 9 CM tool • HSEB no longer does make-build for releases • complex new procedures being developed to work with Raytheon for source code check-out & check-in • HSEB & ASM developers work together using CM client • possibilities for field offices to work with CM tool??? HSEB Activities Update

  6. NEXRAD Software Development Activities • RPG Build 9 start fielding June 2007 • re-host of PPS on Linux plus minor bugs • RPG Build 10 start fielding April 2008 • little HSEB involvement; mean field bias source ID added • SPG Build 3 start fielding September 2007 • adapt RPG PPS to TDWR input data • products viewable on AWIPS OB8.2 • RPG Build 11 start fielding summer 2009 • implement dual polarization QPE algorithm HSEB Activities Update

  7. AWIPS Software Development Activities • Release OB7.2 coming out this week • RAX Database conversion, verification tool updates, initial DHM, HDB re-host, WHFS “Mapper”, “TimeSeriesLite”, RiverMon, ObsFcstMon, RiverPro VTEC, initial Daily QC in MPE, RFC QPE to WFOs • Release OB8.1 entering formal testing • training on and evaluation of new ADE/SDK • source code transfer to Raytheon + resource drain • KAP support resource drain • SRA tool enhancements, Forecast Services into IHFS_DB, HydroGen enhancements • field deployment ~June 2007 HSEB Activities Update

  8. AWIPS Software Development Activities (cont’d) • Release OB8.2 entering development • ADE IV&V Team activities • source code handoff ~June 2007 • field deployment ~December 2007 • verification tool enhancements, new ICP, satellite-radar-gage MPE products, RFC bias transfer • Release OB8.3 planning & requirements • SREC update of content June 2007 • source code handoff November 2007 • field deployment ~June 2008 HSEB Activities Update

  9. AWIPS II News • Most topics already mentioned in previous “CHPS: Status Update” presentation • Raytheon conducting “Application Migration Analysis” (TO 7) now • “Application Migration” of all AWIPS functionality to start mid-2007 and conclude late-2009 • Target of migration referred to as “AWIPS II” • HSEB represented on AWIPS Evolution Leadership Committee (Mark Glaudemans) and ADE IV&V Team (Deb Atkins) • Will impose a significant resource drain on OHD, specifically HSEB through 2009 HSEB Activities Update

  10. HADS • Comprehensive web presence at: • http://www.nws.noaa.gov/ohd/hads/ • Recent hardware technology refresh • processing cycle time cut significantly • Fielding new backup systems at NWS BTG now • Processing 12,500 data points with 2.1 million data values per day • Note historical daily and hourly precipitation time series data (from NCDC) compiled and maintained by Brian Jackson • http://dipper.nws.noaa.gov/hdsb/data/archived/index.html HSEB Activities Update
