Overview • ODAA Roster • Accomplishments and Ongoing Activities • JAG/ODAA Action Items • Satellite Data Requests • ESDA Status • COPC Action Items for JAG/ODAA • New Issues
ODAARoster Sub-groups • Conventional data • Satellite data • Satellite data assimilation
JAG/ODAA Roster *New member
Accomplishments and Ongoing Activities Environmental Satellite Data Annex (ESDA) and Technical Reference-1 • Completed final coordination of the ESDA • Implemented ESDA Technical Reference (TR-1) • Implemented a satellite data product request form and request procedures
Accomplishments and Ongoing Activities • Initiated new data streams (TBD)
JAG/ODAA Action Items • Conventional Data Sub Group Action Items 2007-3.2-C BUFR bulletin data type and description information for OPCs. • WMO is replacing ascii formats with BUFR • Need a web site maintained by NWS/TOC • Site would include data descriptions and available formats • NCEP is developing this capability • Sample product distributed for review and comment • Will also apply to satellite BUFR data
JAG/ODAA Action Items 2009-1.1-C Comparison of Fixed Weather Site Dictionaries • Work comparing Master Station Libraries continues • Verifying correct station location and elevation • Upper air phase of the site comparisons is complete • Summary of significant differences completed • Impact test run on the global forecast system for the environmental modeling center with positive results • determine if OPCs have corrected their upper air dictionaries • Next phase is comparison of surface dictionaries
JAG/ODAA Action Items 2009-4.1-C Requests for Operational Data from NWS Gateway and overall improvement in Communications • Members reported that requests for operational data are not being answered or acknowledged. • Members asked for clarification as to the preferred method to request data. • Communications in general with the gateway are in need of improvement. 2009-4.2-CDetermine if OPCs have corrected their upper air dictionaries as the result of NCEPs dictionary comparison findings. 2009-4.3-C Create notification list for NCEP’s conventional data problem notifications. • OPCs and other significant conventional data users may not be receiving notification of conventional data problems when they are discovered by NCEP.
JAG/ODAA Action Items • Satellite DataSub Group Action Items 2008-4.1-S Transition of EOS data from Goddard (R&D) to NESDIS (Ops). Status: Full suite of MODIS data is flowing to AFWA. Closed 2008-5.2-S NCEP participation (member) to address Satellite Data issues. Status: Dr. Wayman Baker has been appointed. Closed
JAG/ODAA Action Items 2008-8.7-S AATSR, MSG & AMSRE SST Data from NAVO to FNMOC. Status: Completed. Closed 2008-8.8-S NOAA assistance to NAVO in acquiring future altimetry data from Altika, HY2 (Chinese), and Sentinel 3 satellites. • Chinese HY2 data is no longer feasible and was removed as a potential source • NESDIS is currently working on an agreement for Altika (launch 2010) and plans to similarly pursue Sentinel 3 (launch 2012) satellite data.
JAG/ODAA Action Items 2009-4.4-S Draft a consolidated OPC data request to NESDIS to obtain level 1b MODIS and IASI data for conversion to proxy NPOESS HDF5 products for testing. • Apply IPO created software to convert data into proxy NPOESS VIIRS and CRIS/ATMS HDF-5 like data • Send data, encode, and make available to OPC's and JCSDA • IT infrastructure testing at first • As test data sets mature and NPOESS data formats and science sensor data are made available, will also go after that data.
JAG/ODAA Action Items 2009-4.5-S Include NPP data flow information into the TR-1 front matter. • In order for FNMOC to receive Authority to Operate (ATO) for NPP data transfer from AFWA to FNMOC and NAVO • Need to have information included in the TR-1 and reference an approved (signed) ESDA by 29 September 2009.
JAG/ODAA Action Items Satellite DataAssimilation Sub Group Action Items 2009-4.6-SDAGoes Hourly Winds Product Access for FNMOC. • NESDIS produces an hourly GOES wind product • FNMOC is interested in operational access to this data for testing for operational NWP use.
Satellite Data Requests Request log tracks progress of satellite data requests. 2009-3 Terminate transmission of ATOVS BUFR data products to AFWA Requestor:AFWA/2WXG Status: Completed – Closed 2009-4 Transmit N-19 AMSU-A data products to AFWA Requestor: AFWA/2WXG Status: Completed -- Closed
Satellite Data Requests 2009-5 Transmit N-19 LAC & HRPT 1b data products to NAVOCEANO Requestor: NAVOCEANO Status: Completed – Closed 2009-6 Transmit N-19 GAC SST data products to NOAA/NESDIS Requestor: NOAA/NESDIS Status: Completed -- Closed
