  1. Lunch Panel Discussion: The Path Forward to Ensure User Readiness for GOES-R Vanessa Griffin, Project Manager, GOES-R Ground Segment 20 October 2011

  2. GOES-R Operational System Configuration GOES-West 137° West GOES-East 75° West Command and Control, Mission Data, GRB GRB GRB Remote Backup (RBU) Facility – Fairmont, WV Command and Control, Mission Data, GRB Direct Readout Users NOAA Satellite Operations Facility (NSOF) –Suitland, MD Wallops Command and Data Acquisition Station (WCDAS) – Wallops, VA

  3. Transitioning from GOES NOP to GOES-R • Improved data products • Faster full disk images • 5 minutes (Mode 4) and 15 minutes (Mode 3) • Full set of Level 1b Data • Data from all ABI channels and other instruments • Requires new antenna, receiver hardware, and processing system to handle the new data volumes • Receiver frequency shift from 1685.7 MHz to 1686.6 MHz • Dual circular polarized signals • Going from 2.11 mbps to 30 mbps

  4. Readiness Efforts – At All Levels • NWS Ground Readiness Project • Established by NWS to address IT infrastructure issues requiring attention for GOES-R and beyond. Underway now. • Addresses infrastructure for NPP, GOES-R, JPSS, and other advancements • User Readiness Plan • GOES-R Program level communications to users of each system (AWIPS, GAS, CLASS, GRB) regarding training, schedules, needs, important points for dissemination. Draft due November 2011. • Will incorporate COMET and Proving Ground efforts, among others. • User System Readiness • GOES-R GS Project effort to provide support to help external NOAA systems receive GOES-R data. Underway now. • Go to http://www.goes-r.gov/users/overview.html Information will be posted as it becomes available.
