  1. Current Status of the EumetsatOperational and FutureSatellite SystemsKen HolmlundMeteorological Operations DivisionEUMETSATholmlund@eumetsat.de

  2. Current Systems Meteosat First Generation Meteosat Second Generation Future Systems EUMETSAT Polar System Additional EUMETCast EUMETSAT ATOVS Retransmission System JASON-2 Overview

  3. Three operational satellites Meteosat-7 (Parallel Operations to MSG, Until Early 2005) Meteosat-6 (Rapid Scan Service, Until End 2005) Meteosat-5 (Indian Ocean Data Coverage) Services Image Acquisition, Rectification and Dissemination Data Collection and Re-transmission (Only 0o) Meteorological Data Distribution (Only 0o) Meteorological Products Extraction Rapid Scan Products (Only 10oW, best effort basis) Reprocessing facility Meteosat First Generation(until end of 2008, TBC by Council)

  4. Commissioning finished in December 2003 Regular Operations commenced in January 2004 Operational name is Meteosat-8 MSG-2 launch foreseen early 2005 Meteosat Second GenerationMeteosat-8

  5. Image and Product validation phase-out Until end of February 2004 Status nominal Calibration within spec BB-calibration timing impact (mirror angle dependency) e.g. within 1K with HIRS Rectification nominal Main anomaly: SSPA failure -> transponder limitation Dissemination via EUMETCast Dedicated land-line to Wallops Meteosat Second GenerationMeteosat-8

  6. Spacecraft Status

  7. Current Status SVT in May 2004 successful 1st GS delivery III/2004 Final GS for launch end of 2004 Launch end of 2005 Schedule risk mitigation TBC EUMETSAT Polar System

  8. IASI L1 CNES Working (I/F, data) L2 open ATOVS Performance issues with L2, situation improved with RTTOV GOME-2 L1 FAT ongoing GRAS POD and POD Val clarified ASCAT L1 FAT completed Instrument processing chain status

  9. Information package released on the WEB Test data and tools to be included sequentially PPF Labs to be delivered sequentially QCF and ASCAT already in house Additional

  10. Current Baseline NRT Dedicated line to US Baseline format EPS native User request for dissemination via EUMETCast Data to be provided in WMO standard formats (BUFR etc). EPS Data dissemination

  11. Channel allocation: Channel 1 EARS & RSS 0.250 Mbps Channel 2 MSG HRIT 1.620 Mbps Channel 3 MSG LRIT 0.386 Mbps Channel 4 DWDSAT 0.256 Mbps Channel 2 and 3 are fed into the C-band turn-around service. C-band bandwidth is 2.7 Mbps Scope and constraints for additional bandwidth EUMETCast

  12. GTS NWP SAFQuality Control System Overview (Ku-band) NOAA/ Meteosat-8 EUMETCast UPLINK USERS STATIONS AAPP/ Fucino EUMETSAT

  13. EUTELSAT's Hotbird 6 Satellite Footprint

  14. EUMETCast C-Band coverage

  15. Evolution of Meteosat-8 meteorological products New products based on prototyping by MET Updates of existing products based on operational experience VEGETATION derived products VEGETATION products from SPOT Proposal by European Commission for an operational demonstration in the second half of 2004 Basic meteorological Data from WMO regional Association VI RA VI is Europe and Middle East Use of EUMETCast for basic provision of observations and forecasts Working Group under RA VI is establishing user requirements Formal proposal to EUMETSAT delegate bodies will follow EUMETCast Service Extensions Envisaged (I)

  16. ENVISAT data Interest in ENVISAT data in Africa (MERIS for fishery) Informal communication with ESA AEOLUS data ESA Wind lidar mission to be launched 2007 Informal communication with ESA Indian satellite data (INSAT, KALPANA) Backup to Meteosat-5 data To be provided via NOAA and Météo-France Meteosat-8 reception in South America Sub-Continent not covered by EUMETCast Options under investigation EUMETCast Service Extensions Envisaged (II)

  17. EARS Services Specification

  18. Coverage by end of 2003 Gilmore Creek Monterey Edmonton Wallops Kangerlussuaq Bedford Tromsø Gander Maspalomas Athens

  19. Current EARS pilot phase runs until the end of this year Proposal to be put forward to Council already endorsed by STG: Continuation of ATOVS Retransmission Service New Pilot AVHRR Retransmission Service New Pilot ASCAT Retransmission Service Extended Coverage EARS Continuation and Extension

  20. Possible Additions

  21. Experiment under evaluation High resolution altimetry Wide Swath Ocean Altimeter Jason2 / OSTM mission • Core mission • to continue TOPEX/POSEIDON & Jason1 high precision topography measurements • to support operational oceanography implementation • Science requirements for core OSTM mission are identical to Jason-1

  22. OSTM / Jason2 Responsibility Sharing • NASA responsibilities: • Project Management • Launch vehicle • Payload • Advanced Microwave Radiometer • Wide swath Ocean Altimeter (optional) • GPS Receiver • Laser Retroreflector Array • WSOA data validation processing and distribution • NOAA responsibilities: • Support to Project Management • Ground system • Earth Terminals • Ground network • Project Operations Control Center (POCC) • Satellite routine operations after commissioning • Operational product processing and distribution • User interface • CNES responsibilities: • Project Management • Satellite, Proteus bus • Payload • Nadir Altimeter • DORIS tracking receiver • WSOA TWTA • Ground System • System integration & test • Mission Operations during commissioning • Data Processing, archiving and distribution • Support to WSOA Data CALVAL • EUMETSAT responsibilities: • Support to Project Management • Earth terminal, ground network • Operational product processing and distribution • User interface

  23. Operational Science Data Record (OSDR) Wind/wave products distributed to users within 3 hours Geophysical Data Record (GDR) 10 days span, same quality as for Jason-1 Interim Geophysical Data Record (IGDR) Compromise delay vs accuracy under evaluation IGDR + waveform for continental water studies under evaluation Other products WSOA products Multi satellite products Coastal zone products Data Products and Services

  24. Data Dissemination OSDR distributed by Eumetsat in Europe through GTS and other such networks (e.g. world wide web) IGDR distributed by CNES through GTS and other such networks (e.g. world wide web) GDR distributed by CNES NASA/NOAA have similar responsibility on the US side Data Policy All products available through this program will be made available in accordance with WMO resolution 40 and classified as essential data Data Dissemination and Policy

  25. 4-party programme with CNES, EUMETSAT, NASA and NOAA Operational continuation of CNES/NASA project JASON-1, satellite launched Dec 2001 First Critical Design review end of 2004 Decision point for JASON-2B end of 2004 Operational programme?! Current launch date April 2008 JASON-2

  26. Part of the EUMETSAT Ground Segment Operational Responsibility Emerging requirement for real time data e.g. SSMI/S Satellite Application Facilities

  27. That’s it
