  1. SPoRT Accomplishments Gary Jedlovec and the SPoRT Team transitioning unique NASA data and research technologies to operations

  2. SPoRT Metrics Evaluate accomplishments through the use of program metrics Publications • Peer reviewed on new research and transitional capabilities and techniques • Publication of transitional results and assessments are appropriate although not always in peer-reviewed publications Successful transitions • New products and research capabilities in end users decision support systems • Impact of NASA data / capabilities rather than number of transitions is important Community recognition • Peer recognition as a community partner and “place to go” for the transition of research capabilities to the operational weather community • Others adopting the SPoRT paradigm transitioning unique NASA data and research technologies to operations

  3. Major Accomplishments (since 2007) • Publications • Peer-reviewed journal (9) – observational techniques and model forecasts • Conference papers / presentations (58) – AMS, AGU, NWA, workshops • Numerous product assessment by partners / end users and >70 blog posts on usage of NASA data to address forecast problems • EOS products in operations • Expansion of WFOs from 7 to 15, added suite of 30 products and visualization capabilities • More effective data dissemination methods to end users • Use of NWS regional LDM servers vs. individual FTP • MODIS SST composite ingest option for WRF-EMS software • Transition of capabilities to AWIPS II • Jason Burks (NWS/ITO HUN) developed plug-in for McIDAS image data, preliminary SPoRT data in AWIPS II transitioning unique NASA data and research technologies to operations

  4. Major Accomplishments (since 2007) • AIRS data assimilation • Completed transition from ADAS to WRF-Var, finalized profile assimilation study, paper in preparation • Finalized radiance assimilation study in the operational system (GSI/NAM), published results, Ph.D. (McCarty) • WRF initialization experiments and transition – LIS and SSTs • Configured and implemented prototype real-time LIS, summer precipitation modeling and verification study over Southeastern U.S., published results • Completed Miami, FL multi-month modeling study, and ran parallel NSSL/WRF runs with MODIS SSTs during 2009 and began verification, published paper on compositing technique • WRF cloud parameterization adjustment with CloudSat • Evaluated the snow-related assumptions within the NASA Goddard scheme and determined paths for improvement based upon a field campaign study, 3 papers in preparation, Ph.D. (Molthan) transitioning unique NASA data and research technologies to operations

  5. Major Accomplishments (since 2007) • Lightning warning and forecasts • Evaluated and published performance on WRF-based lightning threat forecasting • LMA data to WFOs • Add WFOs for LMA dissemination, establishing real-time data from the KSC LDAR / White Sands LMA, BAMS publication • Training • Development of web-based modules for MODIS, LMA, CIRA Blended TPW, GOES Aviation products • Short, science lectures delivered during 9 site visits outside of HUN and via bi-monthly coordination calls on topics of MODIS, AMSR-E, LIS, LMA, WRF-EMS, ADAS, GOES Aviation • Assessments • Increased partner collaboration with four separate assessment reports, surveys, and blog posts transitioning unique NASA data and research technologies to operations

  6. Major Accomplishments (since 2007) • Expanded partnerships through external funding sources • JPL (ROSES 07) – develop and disseminate enhanced real-time MODIS/AMSR-E SST product • FAA – pilot project for enhanced convective forecasts for NY TRACON applications using NASA data • WorldWinds, Inc. (NASA Crosscutting – RPC) – develop / disseminate chlorophyll composite product • Storm Center Comm., Inc. (ROSES 08) – transition NASA data into EVTT collaboration tool at FEMA, GOMA • GSFC/GMAO (ROSES 08) – LIS development and use of MODIS data • NOAA (GOES-R Proving Ground) – develop/transition proxy ABI/GLM products, training and assessment • Others submitted to ROSES 09 calls transitioning unique NASA data and research technologies to operations

  7. Major Accomplishments (since 2007) • Outreach via web, blog, Facebook - more visibility to external community • Revamped SPoRT website , Wide World of SPoRT blog in (over 100 posts since March 2009), >100 Facebook fans (mainly NWS) • Utilized MSFC PAO to produce science@nasa articles, NASA Spinoff magazine stories, and other news stories • Miscellaneous • Provide quarterly progress reports to 125 sport fans • Developed strategic plan and biennial report • Strengthen SPoRT staff – lightning , liaison, data assimilation – 2 civil service, 1 ENSCO, 2 UAH, Raytheon • Re-established NASA/NOAA MOU for SPoRT collaboration – NWS hiring a shared NWS/NASA transition scientist transitioning unique NASA data and research technologies to operations
