7. NOAA Weather Wire Service (NWWS) Current Issues being worked: – Available set of products on dissemination paths. SBN/NOAAPORT-NIDS NWSTG-NIDS AWIPS WAN – NIDS Handling of Tsunami products – Differences in product formats (WMO, XMPP, SBN/NOAAPORT Packet) – SBN/NOAAPORT Narrowband to Broadband Expansion impact on 1.8m dish configuration. Specification compliance issue/situation 7

8. NOAA Weather Wire Service (NWWS) Satellite Product Stream Findings: BOTH – For high availability BOTH SBN/NOAAPORT and Open Interface are required. All messages are captured regardless of format issues. – 1.8m dish reception of SBN/NOAAPORT PID 201 will have errors and missed messages. Interference is from an adjacent satellite. Discussions being held with Raytheon and GlobeComm on possible mitigations for using 1.8m dishes. – 2.4m dish reception of SBN/NOAAPORT PID 201 - Good 8
