OPC Anticipated Operational Impacts During NESDIS CIP InvocationFall 2009 COPC Meeting Allan Darling
Action Item COPC Action Item 2009-1.4: CSAB will collect Operational Processing Center’s operational impacts during invocation of current NESDIS CIP capability, identify impacts that would be mitigated by a hot backup capability and report out to COPC Finding: While OPCs report some impact during CIP implementation the greatest impact is related to applications/products not backed-up in the current CIP. Recommendation: Close action item
NAVOCEANO Impacts • MCSST processing will be minimally impacted during the time it takes the CIP to activate and provide the necessary 1b data to NAVO (less than 48 hours) • Altimetry processing will be impacted in that delayed JASON‐2 OGDR product delivery will adversely affect the wind/wave products we deliver to our customers • Optics processing will be completely disabled as CIP does not support MODIS data • If CIP were made a hot backup the only mitigation would be for the minimal impact to MCSST processing
NCEP Impacts • Model output degraded until CIP Phase 2 • AMSU-A 1b Sounder Brightness Temperatures • AMSU-b 1lb Sounder Brightness Temperatures • MHS 1b Sounder Brightness Temperature • HIRS-3 1b Sounder Brightness Temperatures • HIRS-4 1b Sounder Brightness Temperatures • 1x1 Field-of-View Cloud Data (Cloud Top Pressure, Temperature) • Model output degraded • AIRS amd AMSU-A Every Field-of-View 1b Sounder Brightness Temperatures • 1x1 Field-of-View Satellite Soundings, Retrievals, Level 1c Sounder Brightness Temperatures
AFWA Impacts • Indirect impact since the UKMO model is the model of consistency. UKMO uses the following: • NOAA IR and microwave radiances (HIRS and AMSU) • DMSP microwave radiances (SSMI and SSMIS) • Aqua IR radiances (AIRS) • GOES-11 and -12 geostationary atmospheric motion vectors • Terra and Aqua polar atmospheric motion vectors • QuikSCAT and Coriolis scatterometer sea surface winds • Snow-cover analysis • NOAA vis and IR imagery (AVHRR) • Will not receive lightning and radar data via NOAAPort • Models utilize many sources of data to include NOAA polar orbiter-based microwave imaging data, high density GOES imagery as well as MODIS data. Loss of this data will degrade the performance of many AFWA-based models
AFWA Impacts – Cont. • Phased return of NESDIS products result in degraded production • Would not have a means of discriminating volcanic ash vs cloud/steam (MODIS is the best tool to use for this purpose - would like to see this added to the Phase 1-2 list as appropriate)
AFWA Impacts – Cont. • Following items in Phase 1.5 will affect operations. • GFT (software) • IASI (data) • GRAS (data) • ASCAT (data) • GOME (data) • Major impact would be to the global model which in turn willdegrade the regional models based on the outage time
AFWA Impacts – Cont. • Following items in Phase 2 will affect operations • QuikSCAT • AVHRR (GAC/LAC/HRPT) • AMSU (A/B) • Level 1b • TRMM • Family of Services? • Ingest • QuikSCAT (Level 2a/Level 2b?) • QuikSCAT Ambiguity (Level 2a/Level 2b?) • Loss of these data can be assessed as moderate impact
AFWA Impacts – Cont. • Following items in Phase 3 will affect operations • Polar Winds • Outage will affect global model output and in turn impact the regional model output
AFWA Impacts – Cont. • “The Following Applications Will Not Be Supported at the CIP Facility”, these items will affect operations. • ASCAT • IASI • MODIS • MODIS Lite • ASCAT and IASI would affect the WRF model and loss of MODIS would impact CDFS-II • Impact of these outages would be mitigated by the use of other data • Loss of ASCAT and IASI would have a greater impact on the global model which in turn impacts the regional model

Summary OPCs agree that temporary application/product loss during CIP implementation has impact that persists only until CIP is fully executed. OPCs will experience sustained impact during CIP from applications/products not included in CIP capability (see Non-CIP_Products in the background materials)
