Presentation Transcript

  1. NASA’s SERVIR Gulf of Mexico Project An Overview Dr. Gary Jedlovec, NASA/MSFC Earth Science Office Mission: To provide a cross cutting solution network and rapid prototyping capability for the Gulf of Mexico region, in order to demonstrate substantial, collaborative, multi-agency research and transitional capabilities using unique NASA resources to address regional problems in societal benefit areas. Presentation at Joint NASA / NWS SPoRT SOO Workshop -- July 11-13, 2006

  2. MODIS Harvesting, Integration, and Demonstration • Integrated solution network – • harvest science results to identify potential solutions to Earth science problems • Rapid prototype capability – • link existing data, proven products, and models • to address specific end user problem and decision • support tools • SPoRT-like capability • Selected USGEO societal benefit areas - • weather forecastingnatural disasters • agriculture/forestry human health ecological forecasts • water resources energy resources ocean resources • climate variability / change

  3. RadarSat data indicating flooded regions (in red) from Hurricane Stan in Guatemala supports relief efforts Rapid prototype development in Huntsville, Alabama Disaster agencies integrate relief information with GIS/flooding data Decision support systems at CATHALAC City of Knowledge, Panama SERVIR Ecological / Disaster Forecasting in Mesoamerica Integration of observational and GIS data bases Historical and real-time data available to end users Links a variety of end users / problems link

  4. Overview / Interactions

  5. Relevance to WFOs? • Broadened responsibly of WFOs into additional societal benefit areas (e.g., coastal and marine forecasts, natural disasters, water/energy impacts) • Access to additional data and resources • unique high resolution data sets (e.g., vegetation health, coastal datasets {land and ocean}) • land and ocean models (evaporation, ocean wind/waves) • Enhanced partner base with common problems • Opportunity for partnering / collaboration
