2015 NOAA Satellite Science Week
23-27 February, 2015

Convening at the Center Green Campus of the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research, 3080 Center Green Drive, Boulder, CO.
(Note: Due to larger than expected response, this meeting has been relocated to the UCAR Center Green campus.)

Science Week is a joint meeting to review and discuss the state of the science portfolio of the GOES-R and JPSS programs. This includes GOES-R and JPSS products, their availability and maturity, risk reduction science activities, and calibration/validation. Registration begins at 12 noon MST, and the meeting will begin at 12:50 PM MST on 23 February and end at 11:00 AM on 27 February. Please plan to arrive early to allow time for registration and to get settled. We are expecting a large turnout this year!
