NOAA's National Polar-orbiting Operational Environmental Satellite System (NPOESS) Data Exploitation (NDE) project will provide civilian users of environmental satellite information with NPOESS data. Through NDE, heritage users will continue to receive critical polar-orbiting satellite data to maintain their current mission support, and new users are expected to take advantage of the improved and expanded suite of products that the NPOESS-era sensors will provide. To satisfy end-user requirements NDE will make two different categories of products available: tailored versions of the NPOESS data records delivered by NPOESS contractors and NOAA-unique products developed by NOAA researchers and contractors. Environmental, sensor, and temperature data records will be repackaged and tailored to meet specific product attributes such as format, coverage, frequency, or projection depending on user needs. NOAA-unique products are those in which additional science processing of data records will be performed to satisfy NOAA-unique mission requirements. The initial focus of NOAA-unique products will be hyper-spectral soundings, atmospheric carbon products, microwave surface and precipitation products, and sea surface temperature products such as anomalies and coral reef bleaching. This poster will describe the NOAA's NPOESS products and the process NOAA is using to transition products from research into operations.
