  1. GSICS Data Working Group Report Aleksandar Jelenak (Chairman) NOAA/NESDIS 10th Session of the GSICS Executive Panel, June 2011, Geneva

  2. Outline • New Working Group members • Action items update • Bias monitoring • netCDF template for product files • Data servers update • Common THREDDS server configuration • GSICS product discovery • GSICS data landscape • Current issues • Main future tasks 10th Session of the GSICS Executive Panel, June 2011, Geneva

  3. New Working Group Members • India Meteorological Department (IMD): R. K. Giri • Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA): Kazuo Umezawa • Russian Federal Service for Hydrometeorology and Environmental Monitoring (ROSHYDROMET): Sergey Uspensky • Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA): Yuki Kosaka 10th Session of the GSICS Executive Panel, June 2011, Geneva

  4. Action Items Update • Majority of action items from 2010 (GDWG04) completed • Those overdue 2010 action items re-assigned to new ones in 2011 (GDWG05) • Total of 55 GDWG05 action items • 17 GDWG05 action items already completed • Action tracker: https://gsics.nesdis.noaa.gov/wiki/Development/ActionsTracking 10th Session of the GSICS Executive Panel, June 2011, Geneva

  5. Bias Monitoring • Two web meetings held this year • Discussed at the Daejeon Joint Meeting • Former GDWG member Hiromi Owada (JMA) developed a web page template • Final GRWG/GDWG decision: Develop a centralized, interactive, web page where bias monitoring plots from all GPRCs will be displayed • Time series of brightness temperature bias for standard scenes; all other plot types t.b.d. • Only… who is going to do it? 10th Session of the GSICS Executive Panel, June 2011, Geneva

  6. NRTC/RAC netCDF Template • The template specifies the content of NRTC and RAC GEO-LEO IR calibration correction files • The common features from the current NOAA, EUMETSAT, and JMA files used in developing the template • All GEO-LEO IR products in the Demo phase must follow the template to reach the Preop phase 10th Session of the GSICS Executive Panel, June 2011, Geneva

  7. Data Servers • Two fully functional THREDDS servers: NOAA and EUMETSAT • Regular upload of GSICS data to both • EUMETSAT server hosts the JMA data • Common directory structure implemented on both servers • CMA preparing a THREDDS server? 10th Session of the GSICS Executive Panel, June 2011, Geneva

  8. Common THREDDS Configuration • Standardize the information and services offered for the hosted data sets • All GSICS product files will be mirrored between the servers (physical copies on each server) • For all other GSICS files, servers will redirect to the original server of those files • Access is logged on both servers in operation 10th Session of the GSICS Executive Panel, June 2011, Geneva

  9. GSICS Product Discovery • Testing a plugin for THREDDS that generates ISO 19115 metadata directly from netCDF files • WMO Information System (WIS) • Any other ISO 19115-compatible metadata harvesting system • Datacasting? A web feed ( ) format for Earth science data 10th Session of the GSICS Executive Panel, June 2011, Geneva

  10. GSICS Data Landscape Data Discovery? WMO Information System? ISO 19115? Datacasting? Bias Monitoring User Support? OPeNDAP HTTP File Download Users? GSICS Data Servers NOAA THREDDS & wiki CMA THREDDS? EUMETSAT THREDDS Common dir structure EUMETSAT Source, Interm., NRTC/RAC GEO-LEO IR File naming and netCDF conventions JMA NRTC/RAC GEO-LEO IR NOAA NRTC/RAC GEO-LEO IR THREDDS common configuration 10th Session of the GSICS Executive Panel, June 2011, Geneva

  11. Current Issues • GSICS wiki’s goal to become a collaboration platform has not been fulfilled • Continue the wiki approach or seek other options • This decision will affect user communication • Who are GSICS data users? • Availability of resources for data management tasks • Member participation 10th Session of the GSICS Executive Panel, June 2011, Geneva

  12. Main Future Tasks • Support transition of current GEO-LEO IR products to Preoperational phase • Prepare for solar channel products • Common THREDDS configuration • Bias monitoring interactive plotting web page • Select the most efficient method of ISO 19115 metadata production for GSICS products 10th Session of the GSICS Executive Panel, June 2011, Geneva

  13. Main Future Tasks(cont.) • Interface with WMO Information System • Explore options for setting up our own data discovery system • User registration and messaging system • Try to answer the questions: • Who are GSICS data users? • What are their preferences? 10th Session of the GSICS Executive Panel, June 2011, Geneva
