Overview • NDE Refresher • COPC Action Item 2008-1.10 • NDE Project Status • What’s New (since May 08 COPC) • Next Steps JAG/ODAA October 23 2008 - NPP Issues
NDE Mission and Objectives Deliver NPOESS data products and assist NOAA and other civilian operational users to realize the potential of NPOESS observations • Disseminate NPOESS Data Records to real-time civilian users • Generate and disseminate tailored NPOESS Data Records • Generate and disseminate NOAA-unique products (enhanced data products constructed from NPOESS Data Records) • Deliver NOAA-unique products, product processing elements, and associated metadata to CLASS for long-term archiving • Provide services to customers, including NDE product training, product enhancement, and implementation support across NOAA • Provide software for NPOESS Data Record format translation and other data manipulations JAG/ODAA October 23 2008 - NPP Issues

Action Item 2008-1.10 • The prioritization of NESDIS NDE Initiatives as it relates to the time phasing of the NPP/NDE, requires further coordination. The NESDIS should work more closely with DoD partners and the JCSDA to ensure coordination of priorities. NESDIS should provide a review of these initiatives at the next COPC meeting. • AI arose from COPC reaction to the NPP Product Development phasing efforts (see next slides). JAG/ODAA October 23 2008 - NPP Issues
Product Development Status • NOAA NDE supporting three major product development lines • CrIS/ATMS Thinned Radiance • Microwave Integrated Retrieval System (MIRS) • Sea Surface Temperature (SST) • Phased Approach for NPP • Phase I to provide legacy products for NOAA mission continuity • Phase II to provide other legacy products JAG/ODAA October 23 2008 - NPP Issues
NPP Phase 1 Phase 1 (3-20 months after NPP Launch): Legacy mission continuity replacement products comprised of currently funded NOAA Unique Products (NUPs) and xDRs JAG/ODAA October 23 2008 - NPP Issues
NPP Phase 2 Phase 2 (20 months after NPP Launch to 1 month prior to C1 launch): Additional legacy products and enhanced products comprised of NUPs and xDRs not linked to mission continuity JAG/ODAA October 23 2008 - NPP Issues
NDE Response to AI 2008-1.10 • Continued coordination for NPP with JCSDA Director • Prior to NPP launch, JCSDA will • Ingest simulated datasets to ensure that file formats (see slide 14) and processing chain including CRTM (Community-based radiative transfer Model) are ready • Immediately after launch, JCSDA will • Start monitoring data quality of CrIS and ATMS against background and analysis fields; diagnostics will be made available to NPP team but not to the general public • Excerpted from L.P. Riishojgaard’s presentation to Sounding OAT JAG/ODAA October 23 2008 - NPP Issues
NOAA NDE Response (cont’d) • NOAA NDE has identified additional “internal NUPs” which may be made available to DoD • CrIS/ATMS Principal Components from radiances - USN • JCSDA Deputy Director to present NDE’s NPP product phasing to JCSDA Executive Team for comment by the non-NOAA partners • But Note: Ability to change phasing severely limited by • NOAA Priorities: Need to meet as many NOAA requirements as possible • Budget Constraints: Lack of funding to support new or accelerated product development • Time: Some NOAA-unique Products take over 2 years to develop JAG/ODAA October 23 2008 - NPP Issues
NDE Project Status • NDE Implementation Phase Initiated • To be completed by May 2009 • Production, Distribution, Subscription, Monitoring builds follow • Production Build to be complete April 2010 • Process, tailor, and stage products on server for distribution • NPP Launch June 2010, Cal/Val period to last 18 months • NDE Distribution Build not complete until January, 2011 • Temporary alternative being pursued to deliver data to NCEP • Testing Ground System Interfaces • NDE-C3S Interface test to be complete by end of Jan 2009 • NDE-IDPS Interface test to be complete by end of Mar 2009 • NPOESS contractor end-to-end by end of April 2009 JAG/ODAA October 23 2008 - NPP Issues
Product Tailoring Tool Selection • Conducted Workshop Nov 27-28, 2007 • Refined requirements • Identified, evaluated, down-selected candidate tools • Published Report February 2008 • Broad community participation, including DoD, NASA • Evaluating candidate COTS tools • Final selection – October 31, 2008 • Initiated project to re-format key XDRs for NWP (convert products to BUFR & GRIB) • SW developed in NESDIS/STAR, integrated into NDE • Priorities identified with NCEP/EMC and JCSDA – next slide JAG/ODAA October 23 2008 - NPP Issues
NPP Reformatting to Support JCSDA JAG/ODAA October 23 2008 - NPP Issues
System Integration Update • NDE Team helped formulate NESDIS response to US Navy inquiry concerning NPP data access • Continue to work with AWIPS Technology Infusion Project • Coordinate schedules, architectures, smart push-pull for data • Work with NWS HQ to identify product requirements • Collaboration with Hydrometeor Testbed • HMT gets enhanced data to support forecasts/warning • NDE gets data/expertise to validate precipitation products • Outreach and Training Program • Identify new applications and new users • Develop/support training modules for products • Leverage existing resources • COMET, NWS Training Division, VISIT, SHYMET JAG/ODAA October 23 2008 - NPP Issues
NDE -COPC Issues • Investigate expansion of the Shared Processing Link • Facilitate the distribution of NDE NUPs and XDRs to Navy and AFWA Centrals • Encourage co-development by NDE and the DoD Centrals • For data product development • We have NUPs; Will there be science-enhanced products developed by the DoD partners? Will these be shared? • For tools • For Training • Explore NPOESS data backup options between NDE and DoD central • Establish communications line between a DOD IDPS and NDE/NCEP computer center ? JAG/ODAA October 23 2008 - NPP Issues
Next Steps • NDE will digest USN, USAF NDE presentations made @ CSAB and JAG/ODAA • NOAA NDE foremost would like to learn • Requirements for NPP NUPs by COPC partners • Requirements for data tailoring tools (to apply to generic data records, or XDRs) • What system tools/features COPC partners might be able to re-use • NOAA NDE also would like to learn • What unique (not XDR) products may be made available by other COPC partners • What tools may be available from other COPC partners • What options are available to provide a mutual backup capability between NOAA NDE and the DoD Centrals • What common (end user) training requirements may be jointly addressed • Assessment of network requirements for exchange of NPP data JAG/ODAA October 23 2008 - NPP Issues
