  1. Ground-based Mobile Instrument Workshop23/24 February 2000OU/NCAR/NSF 23-24 Feb 2000 - Ground-based, Mobile Instrument Workshop

  2. Goals • Complete an inventory of current mobile facilities and their capabilities. • Determine the critical scientific problems that can be best addressed with mobile facilities. • Develop recommendations to facility managers and funding agencies that identify the most critical platforms, both existing and those that need to be developed. Discuss the strengths and weaknesses of existing systems. Compare the systems to alternatives even if they are mounted on airborne platforms, are transportable, but not mobile, or are mounted at a fixed site. 23-24 Feb 2000 - Ground-based, Mobile Instrument Workshop

  3. Goals (cont’d) • Explore and share technological advances (antenna designs, signal processing, wireless communications, etc.) that make ground-based mobile instruments possible. • Identify ways in which mobile facilities can be used for educational purposes. 23-24 Feb 2000 - Ground-based, Mobile Instrument Workshop
