  3. Current NWS ARH Global Imaging System is not a preferred long term solution • NWS ARH desires to centralize their satellite downlink capabilities at NOAA NESDIS Fairbanks Command and Data Acquisitions Site (FCDAS) • ∙ FCDAS able to allocate available downlink time on two 13m tracking antennas – redundant capability • ∙ The capability also exists to use their northern site at Barrow to distribute the load and receive additional passes Global Imaging FCDAS
