EOSDIS System Evolution • ESDIS was directed to evolve the systems under its budget to accommodate vision identified by a joint EOSDIS Elements Study/Technical team • Key vision elements include: • Improve access and processing services, ensure available expert knowledge, reduce operational costs, ensure safe stewardship, maintain IT currency
EOSDIS System Evolution • Top 3 cost drivers contribute to approx. 50 % of total budget: • EMD/ECS • GES DAAC • LaRC DAAC • Factors that contribute to top 3 cost drivers: • Operating multiple systems (ECS, V0/V1, LaTIS, etc.) • DAAC-unique capabilities and science community support beyond specific operation of ECS/SDPS • Providing sustaining engineering for ECS/SDPS at the four ECS DAACs
ESDIS Evolution Path • Approval has been given to embark down an evolution path • GES DAAC and ASDC DAAC to evolve away from ECS SDPS at their sites • MODAPS to evolve towards archive and distribution of all MODIS products • ECS SDPS footprint to be reduced greatly in terms of hardware and custom code • Summary of the plan can be found at http://eosdis-evolution.gsfc.nasa.gov/
Commitment to HDF and HDF-EOS • HDF is supported through NCSA (and in future THG) via a grant • Current grant goes out to July ’08 • ESDIS plans to use this vehicle post ’08; dependent on funding • HDF-EOS is supported through EMD contract • EMD contract ends ’08 • HDF-EOS format will be supported in some way by ESDIS after EMD
