  3. What is NOAAPort? NOAA’s Satellite Broadcast Network NOAAPort– also known as theSatellite Broadcast Network (SBN)– is the primary vehicle through which hydrometeorological products are provided to NWS field office AWIPS systems. The vast majority of NOAAPort products are freely available to NOAA’s partners.

  4. What is NOAAPort? NOAA’s Satellite Broadcast Network POES GOES SES-1 Satellite Other Environmental Satellite Products AVHRR HIRS/AMSU DCS GVAR NOAA/NWS NCEP Guidance & Model Products Satellite Product Generation AWIPS NCF TOC NWSTG NOAAPort Uplink Facility (NY) Satellite imagery NOAA/NESDIS NOAAPort Users Includes Many Users – Inside and Outside of NOAA WFO/RFC Forecasts, Watches Warnings Hydromet Sensor Products (e.g., radar, ASOS, Profiler, River Gages)

  5. NOAAPort Approximate Coverage Area

  6. NOAAPort Channels and Network Expansion • NOAAPort Channels - There are four NOAAPort data streams, each with a unique DVB PID:GOES/NESDIS • NCEP/NWSTG • NCEP/NWSTG2 • OCONUS Imagery/Model/DCP • Expansion Drivers – Existing NOAAPort channels are highly utilized. Emerging requirements, such as for NPP, GOES-R, JPSS, NCEP model, and dual polarization radar, necessitate network expansion.

  7. NOAAPort Network Expansion • Expansion currently underway! • Network bandwidth increase from 10 to 30 Mbps. • Transition from DVB-S to DVB-S2. • Supports MPE and VCM. • 30 day window of “dual illumination,” April 18 to • May 17, 2011. • AWIPS SBN Channel Resizing – New product • additions, starting in July-August 2011.

  8. NOAAPort Technical Specifications * Scheduled for mid-May 2011.

  9. NOAAPort Technical Specifications (Continued) * Scheduled for mid-May 2011.

  10. NOAAPort Product Types* * Based on 2009 analysis.

  11. NOAAPort Upcoming Product Additions • Additional NWP & Forecast Guidance, such as • NCEP’s High Resolution Window – Late 2011. • Dual Polarization Weather Radar Products • from WSR-88D – 2011 through 2013. • NPP Imagery, Soundings, and Other Products – 2012 • through 2013. • GOES-R Series and JPSS Products – 2015 and • beyond.
