Chris Paternostro, Oceanographer NOAA, Center for Operational Oceanographic Products and Service Roman Semkiw, Systems Analyst Systems Integration and Development, Inc. An Oceanographic Processing Environment: From System Design to Data Quality
A Method of Quality Control for Systems that Quality Control Data
National Current Observation Program Tidal Current Predictions from: • Area Surveys • Real Time in Shipping Channels Provide Data for: • Navigation • Search and Rescue/HAZMAT • Coastal & Estuarine Circulation Tidal Current Tables
Why? • Increasing data flow • Yearly increase in the number of data collection sites • Increasing temporal resolution • Increasing spatial resolution • Collaboration • Distributed Data Sets • Various Numerical Units • Various File Formats • Antiquated Computer Software
Capability Maturity Model (CMM) • CMM Level 3 – The development process follows well defined rules and methods • Tracks time and progress • Method for attaining a quality of the final product • Robust Project Planning
System Design • Modular • Extensible • Platform independent • Transferable • Consistent
Benefits • Reduce Defects • Improved User Friendliness • Reliability of Results • Designed to User Specifications • Improving the operational process • Robust Analysis Suite
Summary • A lot of new software to be developed • Decreased Defects • Changing computer environment • Transfer Data • Share Computer Code • Advanced Algorithms
