Reviewer comments of ISRO-GSICS product

Dohyong Kim ( Chair GRWG)

From : Dohyong Kim 25 April 2017

Hi Manik

I would like to congratulate ISRO on their progress of their INSAT-3D - IASI product, and I appreciate Manik for your cooperation.

It is good for INSAT-3D product to enter Demonstration Phase. And please find the attached slightly edited one.

Best regards

Dohy

Hi Manik,

Thanks for forwarding this information. I would like to commend ISRO on the good work putting all the information together.

In short, I am happy for these products to enter Demo Phase.

However, I am not the GRWG chair – so maybe you should check with Dohyeong.

The only additional points I picked up on a quick review:

  1. 1. It should be emphasised that only NRTC products are generated.
  2. 2. The band correction coefficients may need to be renamed for any future RAC products to work in the GSICS plotting tool – Masaya/Pete can advise further.
  3. 3. The channel_name variables do not need to start with “IR” – you can use the full name (e.g. tir1)

I have commented several concerns on the netCDF contents in 2015, but no
need to solve them before the products enter Demo-Phase.

As long as I remember, Tim, Fangfang and I asked 1) ISRO's plan to submit

Re-Analysis Correction in addition to Near Real Time Correction and 2) to
add instrument name(s) to the ATBD title.

Regards,
Masaya

Dear Dohyeong , Pradeep, Tim and GPAT members,

This email is intended to inform members ( and Dohyeong because he would be involved in this process very soon) about the status of the review of the ISRO-GSICS INSAT-IASI cross calibration product that was submitted for review to the GCC.

GCC received filled out GPERF forms from Pradeep Thapliyal along with sample data files in April. We sent it out the product for review on 17 April 2015 to the GSICS Product Acceptance Team ( GPAT) members. GPAT Members diligently made the review and sent back the forms and their comments that were cced to Pradeep also.

As per the GPPA, the GRWG Chair and GDWG Co-chairs have to give a final go ahead to the product to be included in GSICS fold.

In summary GRWG Chair ( Tim Hewison ) has given the green light while GDWG chairs have suggestion some revisions before product being accepted. There are comments too that need to be addressed.

I am pasting Pradeep's email for your reference ( in response to the comments on ISRO's product). This email indicates that ISRO would be submitting a revised product that is acceptable to GDWG Co Chairs.

Upon receiving the GDWG Cochair's ok the review would move to the next steps i.e
  1. Remediate any GPAF issues according to the GPAT feedback.
    • Who: Product provider, GCC Director
    • Due: Within 20 days after sending GPAT feedback to the Product provider
  2. Once all issues are resolved, the product enters the Demonstration Phase.
    • Who: GCC Director in consultation with the GPAT
    • Due: Within 90 days of the GPAF submission

PS: I wanted to bring all on the same page. Let us know if any missing bits here. .

Hi Manik,

Thanks for the update. To encourage/promote more GSICS products, I have no problem with ISRO's product in the demo phase with some minor revisions in the package documents. However, there are some issues which GPRC/GCC and EP need to be aware of for the further promotion.

1). Shall the ISRO's Imager and Sounder products be considered as two products or one product - one ATBD for two different series of instruments.

2). How to define the "harmonized" GEO-LEO products, considering that ISRO currently does not apply the similar viewing geometry matching criteria like the other agencies.

Regards,

Fangfang

Dear Dr. Manik,

As per the details given by ISRO products, at this stage I am agreeing the product. The only concern are which I have raised earlier (in mail) must be addressed/satisfied in later stages.

Thanks
