With the plethora of weather satellites coming on line and the added benefit from combining datasets into new products, it is imperative to develop a sustainable, open source, community supported, efficient, modular processing platform which enables future functionality and facilitates near real-time operational capability for all new sensors and products.
GeoIPS®, a Python 3 data processing platform developed by the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory Marine Meteorology Division (NRL-MMD), is beginning to provide a collaborative, easy-to-use processing system that can support development efforts creating unique products from many different data sources, and facilitate streamlined operational transitions of these new products.
GeoIPS® will deliver a much needed capability for efficient environmental data processing, benefiting users across the operational and research communities. The collaborative nature of GeoIPS® development will lead to increased efficiency and functionality of the final product.
This talk will provide an overview on the processing workflow structure, which includes modularized plugins for data readers, interpolation routines, algorithms, and output formats. We will also highlight some of the existing capabilities in GeoIPS®, and current collaboration efforts with NRL-MMD.
