The “Lift and Shift” project aims to utilize a cloud-based solution to provide IMETs with a seamless AWIPS CAVE desktop experience as if they were working from their office. By doing so, the project will address the current limitations associated with Thin Client, including bandwidth constraints and reduced functionality.
By moving AWIPS to a cloud environment, IMETs will benefit from improved performance, reliability, and access to critical AWIPS functionalities. This transformation will enable them to focus on delivering timely and accurate meteorological support during emergencies without being hindered by technical constraints.
The presentation will provide an updated status of the project along with a summary of the user feedback received.
