The goal of this meeting is to determine the path for operational forecasters to achieve GOES-R/JPSS “user readiness”. User readiness is achieved when operational NWS meteorologists have the skills, competencies, and ability to use GOES-R/JPSS data in the forecast process once the data are available in AWIPS.
Objectives:
-
Review Satellite Proving Ground program status and discuss areas of synergy
-
Discuss training and future user-readiness for all operational forecasters
-
Highlight specific Satellite Proving Ground activities
-
Discuss how Satellite Proving Ground activities are communicated
- Explain data delivery and utilization strategies for AWIPS
