NESDIS-JMA AHI Collaboration background 2015 GSICS WG Meeting, New Delhi, India

4 Collaboration on Himawari-8/9
Feb 2010: JMA visited NESDIS T. Kawazu (Prog. Director), T. Kurino (Proj. Manager), M. Sasaki (AHI Manager) Himawari-8/9 Calibration, INR, and Applications Jan & Mar 2012: Letters were exchanged by agency heads (M. Kicza and M. Hatori). Jul 2014: Finalized the exchange of data and personnel Feb 2015: X. Wu (ABI cal/val lead), F. Yu (cal scientist), and H. Kilcoyne (GOES-R alg. Change) visited JMA/MSC 2015 GSICS WG Meeting, New Delhi, India

NESDIS-JMA AHI Collaboration objectives 2015 GSICS WG Meeting, New Delhi, India

6 2015 GSICS WG Meeting, New Delhi, India
General JMA and MSC organizational structure. Key personnel (calibration, INR, & alg. Change). Acquisition process as relevant to post-launch test and operations. Satellite operation, calibration, and products management (generation, distribution, archive). Instrument calibration, e.g., anomaly resolution, major events, domestic and international collaborations, future plans. Product management, e.g., algorithm change. 2015 GSICS WG Meeting, New Delhi, India

7 2015 GSICS WG Meeting, New Delhi, India
Specific NOAA’s Expressed Interests Dec 2014 Instrument performance using non-nominal data Instrument performance using nominal data Radiance product quality Field campaign JMA Responded Dec 2014 Planned Declined Need Further Information NOAA Clarified Jan 2015 NOAA & JMA Discussed Feb 2015. 2015 GSICS WG Meeting, New Delhi, India

8 2015 GSICS WG Meeting, New Delhi, India
For Each Test Does the on-orbit performance meet the requirements? With how much margin? Is the on-orbit performance consistent with pre-launch test results within uncertainty? If not, what are the reason(s) and mitigation plan? How was the performance evaluated? Are non-nominal data used? 2015 GSICS WG Meeting, New Delhi, India

9 2015 GSICS WG Meeting, New Delhi, India
Goals Evaluate AHI performance. What users should know. learn lessons for ABI. What to prepare for, both in terms of instrument performance and post-launch tests . Identify challenges and opportunities. Plan for future. 2015 GSICS WG Meeting, New Delhi, India

Part 1 Met the MSC leadership. Met the MSC experts. Received MSC presentations Organization structure of JMA & MSC Himawari overview and current status AHI IOT Report MSC evaluation Toured MSC Monitoring system Super computer Ground receiving system Presented NOAA’s algorithm change process. 2015 GSICS WG Meeting, New Delhi, India

12 2015 GSICS WG Meeting, New Delhi, India
Part 2 Toured Himawari Operation Enterprise (HOPE) Off-site. JMA liaison and daily telecon. Consortium of Mitsubishi Electronic (Hardware), NS Solution (Software), and JAXA/SED (Operation) Updated GOES-R status Visited JMA HQ Visited Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST) Explored the possibility of collaboration with JAXA, AIST, and JMA using SLELENE/SP. 2015 GSICS WG Meeting, New Delhi, India

13 2015 GSICS WG Meeting, New Delhi, India
Part 3 Presented NOAA evaluation of AHI performance. Exchanged technical information. Reviewed “NOAA’s interest”. Summarized actions and future plan. 2015 GSICS WG Meeting, New Delhi, India

16 Conclusions and future plan
NESDIS-JMA AHI Collaboration Conclusions and future plan 2015 GSICS WG Meeting, New Delhi, India

17 2015 GSICS WG Meeting, New Delhi, India
AHI Status AHI is the most advanced imager on geostationary orbit Superb imagery quality – unanimous consensus. Demonstrated improvement of existing products. Will enable new applications. INR has improved significantly. Several issues with VNIR and IR calibration. Not unusual so soon after launch. Can be old / anticipated / new. May take a while to fully resolve, being the first of its kind. 2015 GSICS WG Meeting, New Delhi, India

18 Lessons Learned for ABI
Rehearse details. Lost weeks to access data in various links. Engage user community. Help to find and characterize issues. Anticipate challenges from INR. Higher priority, esp. earlier on. Backed with INR-insensitive tests, e.g., lunar. GSICS tools and products are very useful Adapt and enhance for ABI. 2015 GSICS WG Meeting, New Delhi, India

19 2015 GSICS WG Meeting, New Delhi, India
Near Future Plan Follow up on the Actions. One is closed. Periodically (quarterly) review. Coordinate the SPIE presentations Avoid overlap / discrepancy SELENE/SP Collaboration. 2015 GSICS WG Meeting, New Delhi, India
