1 Proving Ground All-Hands Meeting March 4 th, 2013 Presented by Eric Stevens eric@gina.alaska.edu March 4th, 2013Geographic Information Network of Alaska High Latitude Proving Ground GINA Update Summary of Activities Roadmap for the Future 1

2 Proving Ground Activities: January JPSS Proving Ground Seminar, “VIIRS Direct Broadcast Use in Alaska” – Production of presentation was collaborative effort between GINA and NWS in Alaska – Emphasized examples of VIIRS imagery used in real-time on the forecast desk Primarily via AWIPS But also via Internet, as per WFO Anchorage Ice Desk March 4th, 2013Geographic Information Network of Alaska2

3 A Difference of Night and …Night VIIRS DNB 3am Dec 14, 2012VIIRS DNB 3am Dec 27, 2012 March 4th, 2013Geographic Information Network of Alaska3

4 Proving Ground Activities: February Presentation at WFO Fairbanks, “VIIRS on the Forecast Desk” drawn from the JPSS seminar Visit to NWS Pacific Region HQ to meet with Bill Ward and Eric Lau – Demonstration of display of satellite imagery in AWIPS 2 – Discussion of OCONUS meeting in June March 4th, 2013Geographic Information Network of Alaska4

5 Proving Ground Activities: February Bill Smith of CIMSS met with NWS Fairbanks and GINA staff – Bill highlighted the capabilities of the SNPP CrIS data in the forecast process Conference call included NWS Anchorage and Juneau Can GINA bring SNPP CrIS data to NWS Alaska via method similar to what is used with VIIRS? March 4th, 2013Geographic Information Network of Alaska5

6 Proving Ground Activities: February Bill Smith of CIMSS met with NWS Fairbanks and GINA staff – Discussed including CrIS soundings into data assimilation schemes for NWP models GINA expert is Jiang Zhu, also Don Morton from UAF’s Arctic Region Supercomputing Center – Dan Hancock, WFO Fairbanks’ satellite focal point, demo’ed VIIRS imagery in AWIPS for Bill – Melissa Kreller, WFO Fairbanks’ SOO, demo’ed the GFE for Bill March 4th, 2013Geographic Information Network of Alaska6

7 WFO Anchorage Ice Desk WFO Anchorage uses SNPP and MODIS imagery delivered by GINA to produce ice analysis for the public The following examples are from WFO Anchorage’s web site March 4th, 2013Geographic Information Network of Alaska7

11 VIIRS I05 Long-wave IR added to Feeder Had already been delivered to NWS for use in AWIPS Request to include 11.45µm in Feeder web site came from National Ice Center and WFO Anchorage’s Ice Desk March 4th, 2013Geographic Information Network of Alaska11

12 SNPP VIIRS I05 from Feeder web site 1058Z, March 1 st, 2013 March 4th, 2013Geographic Information Network of Alaska12

13 CSPP Update GINA now running CSPP 1.3 on the “warm spare” in support of active fires and cloud masks Further testing regarding generation of images will be required to ensure data flow to Feeder and AWIPS will be stable March 4th, 2013Geographic Information Network of Alaska13

14 Proving Ground Activities: The Future March 4th, 2013Geographic Information Network of Alaska14

15 High Latitude Proving Ground and “Spring Breakup” Imagery can differentiate between snow-covered ground and dry ground – Method initially developed for use with MODIS imagery is transferable to VIIRS imagery Such data is fed into snowmelt-runoff models Collaborative effort between Katrina Bennett and Dr. Jessica Cherry at UAF IARC and the NOAA/NWS River Forecast Center in Anchorage March 4th, 2013Geographic Information Network of Alaska15

16 GOES-R and Modeling of Spring Breakup in Alaska March 4th, 2013Geographic Information Network of Alaska16 Data provided by MODIS, functioning as a proxy for GOES-R ABI

17 March 4th, 2013Geographic Information Network of Alaska17

18 Proving Ground Activities: March Alaska Weather Symposium March 12/13 NOAA Satellite Week March 18-22 Travel to Juneau March 28/29 – WFO Juneau – University of Alaska Southeast – NOAA’s Auk Bay Laboratory March 4th, 2013Geographic Information Network of Alaska18

19 Proving Ground Activities: April-June NOAA Satellite Conference April 8-12 CSPP/IMAPP User’s Group at CIMSS May 21- 24 OCONUS Workshop, Anchorage and Fairbanks, June 17-21 March 4th, 2013Geographic Information Network of Alaska19
