9 Introduce JAG/LDS Goals Review TOR –The JAG/LDS will provide a National Lightning Capabilities Document that will achieve the following: Be a mutually agreed upon set of capabilities that will fulfill the requirements of the member agencies. Fully describe the capabilities such that a contractor can build the system based on what is in the document. Be delivered to the NWS by June 2008.

10 Review Timeline EventPOCDue Date Agencies provide capability description Each agency with unique requirements 30 Mar ‘08 First DRAFT Capabilities Document Lt Col Fitzgerald30 Apr ‘08 Review/improve Capabilities Document JAG/LDS30 May ‘08 OFCM review/approval of Capabilities Document Mr. Sam Williamson 30 Jun ‘08 Vendor Technical ReviewNWS?? Complete MOUNWS?? Complete New ContractNOAA Contracting Jan ‘10

11 Description of Agency Deliverable See Excel spreadsheet Due to OFCM 30 Mar 08 All agencies (DOC, USAF, USA, Navy, DOI, FAA, BLM, NASA) should provide a list of capabilities using the table provided Are there any descriptors missing? –Impact if capability not available? –Flash vs stroke reporting? –Polarity? –Cloud to cloud needed? –Data Format? Add descriptive columns, pages, or maps as necessary to capture your agency’s needs

12 Description of Agency Deliverable Should we agree on a common non-proprietary data format? Need to agree on common description (intersection of all of our needs) for different geographical areas. –Common set of capabilities for CONUS and territories –Common set of capabilities for Pacific and Atlantic –Common set of capabilities for Europe etc etc We can capture those needs that fall outside the intersection of our common needs and make them a part of the data capabilities document. –Separate description for Spacelift, range, EOD capabilities etc
