GSICS Web Meeting on Instrument Information Landing Pages
Agenda
- Rob Roebeling (EUMETSAT) Instrument Information Landing Pages
- Jerome Lafeuille (WMO) - Pre-launch instrument characterization for SATURN
- Li Yuan (CMA) - Development of the Performance and Health Monitoring System of FENGYUN Satellites
- Manik Bali (NOAA) Instrument Landing Pages: Challenges and Workarounds
Attendees
Chair: Tim Hewison (EUMETSAT)
CMA: Li Yuan
EUMETSAT: Rob Roebeling, Tim Hewison, Peter Miu, Robert Meyer
JMA: Masaya Takahashi
NOAA: Manik Bali, Jordan
WMO: Jerome Lafeuille
Outcome
Manik introduced the proposed landing pages for NOAA instruments, which will initially be populated for a few priority instruments. The participants suggested the priority should be GOES imagers, VIIRS and HIRS.
Action: Rob Roebeling to draft a proposal for which instrument characteristics should be published 2-3 years before launch, and at what level of detail, for presentation at 2016 GRWG/GDWG meeting. These could be specified both as a minimum recommended level, and full, detailed level. It should suggested that these include radiometric noise, SRFs, and some geometric aspects, such as iFoV (if not full PSFs/MTFs).
