STAR and GOES-R Presented by Timothy J. Schmit Center for Satellite Applications and Research (STAR) Review 09 – 11 March 2010
Requirement, Science, and Benefit Mission Goals • • Advancing space-based data collection capabilities and associated platforms and systems Advancing in situ and surface-based data collection capabilities and associated platforms and systems Overall observing systems architecture design Data management, associated visualization technology and models, and related high performance computing and communication Science • • What improvements to observing systems, analysis approaches, and models will allow us to better analyze and predict the atmosphere, ocean, and hydrological land processes? How are uncertainties in our analyses best estimated and communicated? How do we ensure data and product continuity? How best to exploit temporal and other attribute? Benefits • • • GOES-R will improve support for the detection and observations of meteorological, oceanographic, climate, and environmental phenomena that directly affect public safety, protection of property, and ultimately, economic health and development Advanced imager-related incremental benefit of at least $4. 6 B, when looking at just 5 sectors. STAR saved ~ $400 M by showing that the ABI could produce legacy sounder products. Center for Satellite Applications and Research (STAR) Review 09 – 11 March 2010 2
Challenges and Path Forward • Science challenges • • Exploit the time component of geostationary measurements Prepare for operational readiness of “Day 1” products. Better combine GOES and other data sources Define better methods for product validations • Next steps • • Continue GOES-RRR activities Continue AWG (ATBDs, etc. ) support in preparation for product generation Continue and expand Proving Ground activities with the NWS and others Prepare for any waiver requests Education/Training (SME/COMET) advanced soundings “Day 2” new products Calibration (Calibration Working Group) and Validation Continue to prepare for operational use of GOES-R • Transition Path • • Continue AWG and other efforts in support of “Day 1” operational products being produced and validated. Prepare for any needed updates to “Day 1” products and start “Day 2” products. Center for Satellite Applications and Research (STAR) Review 09 – 11 March 2010 3

Mission Planning • Very involved during the early GOES-R series development. • This includes: formulation studies for both ABI and advanced geostationary sounder, ABI band selection and modification, Technical Requirement Documents, Performance and Operational Requirements Document, etc. Originally ABI was only 8 spectral bands, now it is 16. All ABI bands were modified with input from STAR and it’s Cooperative Institutes.
