NPP ADP EDR OVERVIEW Ivan Csiszar NOAA/NESDIS/Center for Satellite Applications and Research (STAR) JPSS/NPP Algorithm and Data Products EDR Lead and STAR ADP EDR Leads
Major ADP EDR activities • Post-launch algorithm development and validation work • implementation of pre-launch preparatory work: development of capabilities for algorithm testing and validation • Data access, processing code, visualization and validation tools • Correlative datasets for validation (heritage satellite and in-situ) • early orbit check-out followed by intensive cal/val • testing results are being generated • discrepancies / issues are reported via formal Discrepancy Reports • focus on SDR and interaction between SDR and EDR teams • algorithm changes of varying levels of complexity are worked on • Continuing science support of mid- and long-term program and mission planning • product maturity dates • product assessments and requirements • resource requirements
