2. APSDEU-6, 1-3 June 2005, KMA HQ 1 Introduction to Future COMS Met. Operational Center KWON O-Ung Korea Meteorological Administration

3. APSDEU-6, 1-3 June 2005, KMA HQ 2 KMA still remains as an end-user of foreign meteorological satellites, mainly GMS, GOES and many others. After the successful launch of the COMS in 2008, KMA will have responsibility in sharing COMS meteorological observations with world meteorological community. An integrated system of experts and facilities to receive, analyze, and re-distribute COMS meteorological observations is needed. Why Operational Center ?

4. APSDEU-6, 1-3 June 2005, KMA HQ 3 Function (1/3) Data reception, analysis, and redistribution –Downlink of source data from COMS meteorological Imager (MI) –Generation of meteorological products –Broadcasting the products (LRIT/HRIT services for users) –Receiving foreign geostationary and polar orbit meteorological satellite observations

5. APSDEU-6, 1-3 June 2005, KMA HQ 4 Function (2/3) Meteorological mission control of COMS User Services ( domestic/foreign ) –Expansion of COMS user groups –Training for COMS users –User conferences for COMS users

6. APSDEU-6, 1-3 June 2005, KMA HQ 5 Function (3/3) Planning for the 2 nd Korean MetSat. –Collecting requirements from domestic/foreign users –Establishment of the user requirements –Research on the advanced MetSat. technology and experience –Budgeting –Recruiting new experts Backup of SOCC/KARI

13. APSDEU-6, 1-3 June 2005, KMA HQ 12 Provisional COMS MI Scenario 2 (in emergency) Special mode Full Disk every 3 hours N. Hemi every 30 min. East Asia every 15 min. Korean Penin. every 8min

14. APSDEU-6, 1-3 June 2005, KMA HQ 13 What should be done ? Before the COMS launch, Construction of the Center building Establishment of ground segments –R/F System –Computers, Storages –Networks Set-up of Met. Mission Control –Control of COMS MI (through SOCC of KARI) –Policy-making for user services

15. APSDEU-6, 1-3 June 2005, KMA HQ 14 Organization (Expected) In 2008, total of 87 persons will work at the four divisions as follows; General Services Division Met. Satellite Policy Division Data Analysis Division Communication Division
