Second Suomi NPP Applications Workshop John A. Haynes, MS Program Manager, Health and Air Quality Applied Sciences Program Earth Science Division Science Mission Directorate NASA Washington, DC USA jhaynes@nasa.gov
Purpose • Update the Earth science and applications communities on Suomi NPP including: • o Instrument performance • o Data Characteristics • o Access to data and data products from NOAA and NASA • Review current applications from all S-NPP instruments and present new ideas. • Provide an opportunity for community feedback to NASA and NOAA on data products, data access and other user needs. (Important for lessons learned as input to the next Decadal Survey!) • Identify current barriers to integration of Suomi NPP data into existing and developing applications.
