Space-Based Operational Global Earth Observations From NPP and JPSS - 2012

Explore the latest advancements in space-based global Earth observations from the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (NPP) and Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS) in this comprehensive conference session from the 2012 AGU Fall Meeting. Delve into operational applications, mission status, and initial results from the Suomi NPP satellite. Examine the calibration and validation activities of the Cross-track Infrared Sounder (CrIS) Sensor Data Record (SDR) and its contribution to provisional maturity product levels. Learn about the first year on-orbit performance of the Advanced Technology Microwave Sounder (ATMS). Discover highlights of the Ozone Mapping and Profiler Suite Limb Profiler (OMPS-LP) sensor performance and Release 1 data products. Evaluate recent Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) sensor performance in coastal ocean applications and explore the status of the VIIRS active fire product. Gain insights into the transition of Suomi NPP data products for operational weather forecasting applications. This session offers a comprehensive overview of cutting-edge Earth observation technologies and their practical applications in meteorology, oceanography, and environmental monitoring.
