Science Mission Directorate NASA
Washington, DC USA
Purpose
Update the Earth science and applications communities on Suomi NPP including:
o Instrument performanceo Data Characteristicso Access to data and data products from NOAA and
NASA
Review current applications from all S-NPP instruments and present new ideas.
Provide an opportunity for community feedback to NASA and NOAA on data products, data access and other user needs. (Important for lessons learned as input to the next Decadal Survey!)
Identify current barriers to integration of Suomi NPP data into existing and developing applications.
Suomi NPP Launched on Oct. 28, 2011!
