NAVOCEANO’S NPOESS DATA EXPLOITATION SYSTEMFALL COPC Meeting13-14 Nov 08George M. Mason
NAVOCEANO’s NDE NPOESS Data Exploitation (NDE) NPOESS IDPS . CUSTOMERS Environmental Product Data Record (generic) Service request Service response NPOESS program Centrals' programs (NAVOCEANO) • CNMOC approves NDE for NAVOCEANO and FNMOC • NAVOCEANO’s service request/ response incorporates more than IDPS and NDE environmnetal products, e.g. ocean forecasts, bathymetry, acoustics, etc. • The Naval Research Lab R&D is the primary developer and development is not under same line office as NAVOCEANO. Many Navy NDE developments are being worked by non-COPC entities.
NPP Connectivity Timeline • 9/06-20/2007: Navy’s NPOESS Readiness Budget and design of NPP connectivity to both Navy Centrals modified due to NPP launch delay. • 12/07/2007: FNMOC and NAVOCEANO generated requirements for Pre-IDP NPP data receipt. • 1/10/2008: All four Centrals, PMW-120, CNMOC, and the IPO meet at NCF regarding pre-IDP NPP receipt solution for Navy. • 3/14/2008: PMW-120 begins dialog with AT&T on comms requirements. • Mid-March 2008: CNMOC delivers Navy requirements for NPP data to NESDIS and AFWA. • 6/27/2008: Initiated telecons with AFWA regarding NPP connectivity to Navy Centrals. Initiated debate on adding/widening DATMS-U VS using AT&T. • 8/14/2008: Navy Centrals propose a “Navy blackbox” within the NPOESS firewall at AFWA to reduce C/A problem. The IPO proposes 2 Navy-funded servers within a Navy firewall at AFWA and obtaining the AFWA IDP data from an unused SDS port. This is for the AT&T concept.
Ocean CalVal for NPP • IPO has asked NRL SSC to take lead in Ocean calval • Initial meeting July 08 with following participants • Bob Arnone (lead) and Paul Lyon (NRLSSC) • Alexander Ignatov (NOAA/NESDIS) • Peter Minnett and Bob Evans (RSMAS) • Doug May and Bob Coulter (NAVO) • First priority is to get a proxy VIIRS datastream • Working with Joe Zajic (NOAA/IPO) on software that will ingest MODIS data and convert it to proxy VIIRS data in real-time • the data will be formatted according to the IDPS SDR output specification in HDF5 and will have the MODIS channels spectrally transformed to resemble VIIRS channels • Allows those users getting MODIS data already to run conversion software rather than acquiring another datastream • Will be used for both SST and ocean color NDE
NPOESS Readiness POM-08 Submission • NAVOCEANO, FNMOC, NRL, and SPAWAR have secured approved NPOESS Readiness funding from the Oceanographer of the Navy for FY08-15.. • NAVO funded for Operations including budget for computer hw migration, sw migration, maintenance, facility space renovation, and comms lines to transition from POES to NPOESS data streams • Integrate NPOESS data into legacy exploitation capabilities • Implement new sw transitions developed by NRL • NRL funded for development of Upper Ocean Layer predictions • Optical Properties • Mesoscale modeling predictions • Ice nowcast/forecast
NAVOCEANO NDE Initiatives : • Multiple satellite SST assimilation into operational models • NAVO operational with AVHRR, GOES and AMSR-E • NRL/NAVO evaluating and implementing AATSR, MSG, MODIS • Altimeter assimilation into operational models • NAVO operational with GFO, Jason, and ENVISAT • Descoping of NPOESS ALT led to NRL evaluation of OSTM (Jason-2), HY-2, Altika and Sentinel 3. NRL also leading effort for next Navy altimeter satellite. • Ocean color properties and assessment & assimilation into operational models • NAVO operational with automated generation and validation of operational optical properties from Seawifs and MODIS • Diver visibility, laser penetration depth, laser performance, asset vulnerability depth • NRL evaluating MERIS, OCM and VIIRS proxy data set derived from MODIS data
NAVOCEANO NDE Initiatives : • Net Heat Flux for ocean circulation models • NRL investigating improvements to surface flux assimilation into ocean models by comparing atmospheric model flux estimates to satellite derived observations • NRL will derive surface fluxes from existing and future satellite sensors (including NPOESS) • Specific humidity, air temperature, surface wind, SST • Sea Ice Characteristics & Temperature for improved ice model • NAVO operational with NCOM/CICE/NCODA • NRL validating assimilation of ice concentration into HYCOM/CICE/NCODA • NRL developing assimilation techniques for ice age and ice temperature into HYCOM/CICE/NCODA • NRL will evaluate assimilation of NPOESS ice temp, ice concentration and ice age into HYCOM/CICE/NCODA when available
JCSDA • JCSDA initiatives coordinated with NRL and approved by CNMOC • Must be new initiatives not worked by NRL • Must be new funding • Must support Navy Mission
