  1. FY2011 Metrics Reporting Review Greg Hunolt, ColumbusES-DSWG / MPARWGNovember, 2011

  2. FY2011 Metrics Reporting Status:Products & Services Metrics 1. MEaSUREs Projects – 30 active projects: • 25 projects are now distributing products, • 7 are REASoN continuations, 18 are new projects, • 21 projects have begun public distribution, 4 limited distribution. • Of the 21, 18 projects are now reporting metrics. • 4 projects expected to begin distribution in FY2012. • 1 project, ISCCP, has provided software to NOAA / NCDC for product generation.

  3. FY2011 Metrics Reporting Status:Products & Services Metrics, Cont. 2. ACCESS Projects – 3 Sets, ACCESS-05, ACCESS-07 ACCESS-09 ACCESS-05 Projects: • 16 projects at start, all have completed. • 2 projects continue to report post nominal completion; they may continue into FY2012. ACCESS-07 Projects: • 10 projects at start, 8 are completed, 2 complete in December, 2011; • Metrics reports received from 6 projects. ACCESS-09 Projects: • 11 projects at start, completion dates in FY2012; • 3 projects are reporting regularly, 1 is behind but will catch up • 6 projects planning to begin metrics reporting “soon”, 1 uncertain.

  4. FY2011 Metrics Reporting Status:Products & Services Metrics, Cont. 3. REASoN Projects: • 42 REASoNs at program start; • 7 REASoNs transitioned to MEaSUREs projects; • 35 REASoNs were completed by end of FY2010; 3 REASoN’s continued “voluntary” reporting in FY2011.

  5. Reporting to NASA Headquarters Reportees are Martha Maiden for MEaSUREs projects and Steve Berrick for ACCESS projects. Martha Maiden (2009 ESDSWG / MPARWG) asked for: • Impact Metrics (now using quad-chart format), • Aggregate Statistics derived from reported metrics, • Highlights for particular projects. So: • Projects are requested to provide Impact Metrics to Rama via e-books, using the new format (template and example follow). • Rama forwards selected Impact Metrics to Martha. • Greg began in June 2010 to produce monthly report on aggregate statistics and a project highlight in quad-chart format, draft to Rama, who forwards final version to Martha. • Martha has now requested a change in the format to be more consistent with program scientists’ reports; we await her comments on two samples. • Awaiting also comments from Steve Berrick on a sample for him.

  6. New (July 5) Impact Metrics Format NASA HQ has approved the quad-chart format for Impact Metrics recommended by the MPARWG. Template and example of the new quad-chart format Impact Metric (next chart) are on the e-Books website at Quad Charts > Upload New File. You see this screen:

  7. Headline Highlight Optional Text Who/What/Where/When/Why • Project and PI: Name & Organization. • Describe project and data involved in this impact. • State project goals, accomplished steps to reach project goals, including any beyond original objectives. • Use “action” verbs & active descriptions: developed, released, achieved, demonstrated, modeled… • Etc. Insert an image or graphic here that provides a visual complement to the narrative description of the impact or new ESDR described below. caption for graphic Relevance to NASA Impact • Describe how your project’s work is relevant to NASA goals • Etc. • This is the “what’s new and exciting” part. • Description of a success story, i.e. how the project’s products / services have directly benefited a particular user, organization, or activity the project supports. • Or, describe a new ESDR your project is releasing, or a significant update to an ESDR previously released, and what the general impact or benefit is expected to be. Further Information Science Application • Describe Earth science research area or application this work applies to Links to find out more

  8. New Sea Surface Temperature (SST) ESDR Released Daily global SST map at highest resolution possible (1 km) “MUR SST” receives heavy usage in first 3 months of release Who/What/Where/When/Why • Project and PI: Multi-Scale Ultra-high Resolution (MUR) SST Project, T. Mike Chin, JPL. • Produces a daily SST gridded analysis at 1-km resolution by merging AMSR-E microwave and MODIS/AVHRR infra-red retrieval data. • Implemented a wavelet-based analysis algorithm (MRVA) for the data fusion task involving heterogeneous scales. • Extended MRVA implementation to cover the globe. Insert an image or graphic here that provides a visual complement to the narrative description of the impact or new ESDR described below. Hurricane Ike leaves cooling wake to the right of its track. Relevance to NASA Impact • Contributes to improved understanding of ocean physics which will aid in improving climate models. • Aids accurate representation of air-sea coupling in atmosphere-ocean coupled models. • Increases our understanding of the role of oceans and atmosphere in the climate system and improves our predictive capability. • MUR combines the wide-swath high-resolution features of MODIS data with cloud-resistant (microwave) capability of AMSR-E data. • MUR product usage at PO.DAAC ranked #5 by volume and #9 by users for June 2011, the third month of release. Science Application • Studies of meso- and submeso-scale phenomena and physics of ocean surface, air-sea interaction, weather. • Oceanic fronts, SST gradients, and marine biology.

  9. Observations and Looking Ahead to FY2012 • FY2011 was a transition year. • 25 MEaSUREs projects are distributing products and all 30 should be doing public distribution and reporting metrics in the coming year. • All 11 ACCESS-09 should begin metrics reporting in the coming year. • Very few REASoN and ACCESS-05 projects are left, in some cases capabilities they developed have been picked up by DAACs. • The last two active ACCESS-07 projects will complete. • More “mixed” reporting using the “EMS-MCT Bridge” will begin in FY2012, as more projects transition product archiving and distribution to a DAAC. • Some dynamic metrics (i.e. distinct users, products delivered, volume delivered) will be derived from the EMS. • Projects will continue to use the MCT to enter and as needed update more “static” metrics.

  10. Observations and Outlook for FY2012, Continued • The Service and Project-Defined Metrics continue to be successful (to the extent that they were used) in helping projects to portray their activity. Use by MEaSUREs could be encouraged. • Using Service metrics allows a project to distinguish its services from its products; • Using Project-Defined metrics allows a project to define metrics that make sense in the project’s own context. • Greg will continue to provide background / offer assistance with the metrics. • Jody Garner and Randy Barth will continue to help projects with passwords, etc., and making sure they can access the MCT, and with any problems that they encounter with the MCT.
