SVP Server
monitors navigation broadcast from SIS (via UDP)
extracts temperature and salinity profiles from World Ocean Atlas (aka “Levitus”)
T/S profiles delivered to SIS for ray bending corrections without operator intervention

2. SVP Server Beta Testers
CCGS Amundsen 2011 return transit to Quebec city
USCGC Healy 2011 return transit to Dutch Harbor
SVP Server provided 68 SVP casts over 8 day transit
SVP Server Beta Testers
SVP Server provided 57 SVP casts over 5 day transit
(note WOA2009/Levitus has 1° grid resolution)
Thanks to Steve Roberts (UCAR)
Thanks to Steve Brucker (OMG/UNB)

3. Future Plans Incorporate in situ measurements
Global Real-Time Ocean Forecast System (RTOFS)
NOAA National Weather Service
Environmental Modeling Center
Future Plans
Incorporate in situ measurements
Consistent and streamlined XBT/CTD pre-processing
Automated upload and application in SIS
More sophisticated oceanographic models
“This system is based on an eddy resolving 1/12° global HYCOM (HYbrid Coordinates Ocean Model) and is part of a larger national backbone capability of ocean modeling at the National Weather Service in a strong partnership with the US Navy.”
