This update extends MiRS v11r3 capability to provide NOAA-20 products.M-B All NOAA-20 MiRS products, except snowfall rate (SFR), have passed their provisional maturity review and have now been declared operational.M-B The NOAA-20 SFR is still in Beta, and itM-bM-^@M-^Ys operational declaration will occur sometime after it passes the provisional maturity review.

Although PDA short names remain the same as those of S-NPP, the MiRS IMG and SND files are updated to replace 'snppM-bM-^@M-^\ with "n20" as follows:

NPR-MIRS-IMG_v11r3_n20_* (PDA short name: MIRS_ATMS_IMG)

NPR-MIRS-SND_v11r3_n20_* (PDA short name: MIRS_ATMS_SND)

NPR-MIRS-IMG_33min_v11_n20_* (PDA short name: NPR-MIRS-IMG_33min_v11)

NPR-MIRS-SND_33min_v11_n20_* (PDA short name: NPR-MIRS-SND_33min_v11)

NPR-MIRS-IMG_v11r3_n20_*.tar (PDA shortname: BUNDLED_NUPS_MIRS_ATMS_IMG)

NPR-MIRS-SND_v11r3_n20_*.tar (PDA shortname: BUNDLED_NUPS_MIRS_ATMS_SND)

I1, I2, I3, I5 and NCC GeoTIFF products for the J1 satellite & NIC's regions of interest

NOAA-20 VIIRS Cloud Mask, Cloud Phase/Type, Cloud Daytime Cloud Propertie(DCOMP), Cloud Height, Cloud Base Height, Aerosol Optical Depth and Particle Size Parameter, Aerosol Detection, Volcanic Ash have reached provisional maturity and will be available for public access from PDA.M-B NOAA-20 Aerosol Optical Depth will also be in BUFR format in addition to NetCDF.

NOAA-20 OMPS V8TOz and V8TOS have passed Provisional Maturity review and have been declared operational.

This implementation will be upgraded for NOAA-20 CrIS high resolution of Sensor Data Records (SDR) to include the Cloud Mask and Cloud Height. In addition, it will include the NOAA-20 NUCAPS Environmental Data Records (EDR) for Temperature, Water Vapor and Ozone profiles, Outgoing Long Wave Radiations (OLR) as well as trace gases. NUCAPS trace gases include the Carbon Monoxide (CO), Carbon Dioxide (CO2), and Methane (CH4) data products.

This release provides NOAA-20 VPW products and updates the version number on operational SNPP VPW products. The NOAA-20 VPW product has passed provisional maturity review and is now declared operational.

1) The file name convention of NOAA-20 VPW products are:

NOAA-20 VPW Products in NetCDF format:

PAMV-VIIRS-CD-NH_v2r1_j01_s*_e*_c*.nc

PAMV-VIIRS-CD-SH_v2r1_j01_s*_e*_c*.nc

Products in BUFR format:

PAMV_v2r1_j01_s*_e*_c*.bufr

2) Similar to NOAA-20 VPW, the file name convention of SNPP VPW products will be updated:

SNPP VPW Products in NetCDF format:

From

PAMV-VIIRS-CD-NH_v2.1_npp_s*_e*_c*.nc

To

From

PAMV-VIIRS-CD-SH_v2.1_npp_s*_e*_c*.nc

To

PAMV-VIIRS-CD-SH_v2r1_npp_s*_e*_c*.nc

SNPP VPW Products in BUFR format:

From

PAMV_v2.1_npp_s*_e*_c*.bufr

To

PAMV_v2r1_npp_s*_e*_c*.bufr
