Center for Satellite Applications and Research (STAR) Review 09 – 11 March 2010 Two Topics Appearance of STAR as disparate projects Clarification on the ‘pull’ concept/strategy

Center for Satellite Applications and Research (STAR) Review 09 – 11 March 2010 General Rating Criteria Quality –Assess the quality of the research and development to ensure that high-quality work was and will be performed. Relevance –Assess the degree to which the research and development was and will be relevant to NOAA’s mission, priorities and of value to the Nation Performance –Assess effectiveness of accomplishments since the last review –Assess the effectiveness of the office’s plans, research and development, given the resources provided, to meet NOAA’s objectives and the needs of the nation. 3
