1 GOES I/M Product Assurance Plan (GIMPAP) - FY 2006 Enhanced utilization of GOES I/M Contribution from: the NOAA/National Severe Storms Laboratory Participants: Bob Rabin NOAA/NSSL and CIMSS University of Wisconsin
2 GOES I/M Product Assurance Plan (GIMPAP) - FY 2006 Contribution from: the NOAA/National Severe Storms Laboratory Main project goal: Develop applications to enhance utilization of GOES I/M in conjunction with Doppler radar & other data sources for the detection and forecasting of hazardous weather.
3 TAC Guidance from 2005 1) Emphasize techniques that have the most potential to be transitioned into operational forecast systems (AWIPS,N-AWIPS, WDSS-II 2) Continue coordination on new severe weather index with CIRA 3) Continue collaboration with CIMSS on fire work and ORA-STAR on precipitation validation. 4) Coordinate with MDL GIMPAP project to transfer WDSS-II applications to SCAN 5) Contribute to training efforts where possible.
