Possible improvement in data latency

Date/Time(UTC) Message Issued:
10 May 2004,1945 UTC

Satellite(s) Involved:
ALL

Instrument(s) Involved:
ALL

Product(s) Involved/Affected:
ALL

Date/Time(UTC) of Initial Implementation:
12 May 2004, Time 1600 UTC

Details/Specifics of Change:

OSD is investigating adding an additional DOMSAT link for transfer of polar
satellite data from NOAA CDA stations to
SOCC. The addition of this link would allow SOCC to receive recorded
satellite data from NOAA CDAs almost as it is
being downloaded from the satellites. The result of this would be that the
1b data could be made available
approximately 15 minutes closer to the time of observation. OSD is looking
for justification to add this additional
link and would like to know if your area would benefit from this type of
improvement in timeliness of these data. If
you think your area has a requirement for this, please send an email stating
so to Vincent.Tabor@noaa.gov or Kirk.Liang@noaa.gov. He is collecting these
statements to pass on to OSD as ammunition for their battle to win approval
of this additional link. If possible, please provide your input to me by
May 12. Thank you for your support.
