LANCE AMSR2 and ISS LIS Updates

Slide Note

LANCE AMSR2 and ISS LIS provide real-time processing status and plans for various products like L2B Rain/Ocean, L3 Snow, L3 Sea Ice, and more. The AMSR Science Team leads the development with new algorithm updates planned. The data is used to monitor hurricanes like Florence and Michael. The website offers valuable information for researchers and disaster management agencies.

NRT AMSR2 and Hurricanes NRT AMSR2 and Hurricanes Hurricane Florence, Tropical Storm Isaac, and Hurricane Helene are clearly visible in Worldview using LANCE NRT AMSR2 data. Hurricane Michael is clearly visible in Worldview using LANCE NRT AMSR2 data. The NASA Earth Science Disasters Program also features our LANCE AMSR2 data on their The NASA Earth Science Disasters Program also features our LANCE AMSR2 data on their website website. . 11/30/2018 4

LANCE NRT ISS LIS Data LANCE NRT ISS LIS Data Near real-time Lightning data are available from ISS LIS within two minutes of observation ISS LIS PI: DR. Richard Blakeslee Multi-Increment Payload Resupply and Outfitting Model (MiPROM) shows the STP-H5 ISS LIS mission extended thru April 2021 April 2021 11/30/2018 7

LANCE ISS LIS Data Products LANCE ISS LIS Data Products Provisional NRT ISS LIS data are now available (published P0.2 earlier this year) LIS data can now be used in support of science and operational applications. -- Data will be classified as fully Validated Validated once the quality control process is verified and fully implemented. https://lance.nsstc.nasa.gov/iss https://lance.nsstc.nasa.gov/iss- -lis/data.html lis/data.html 11/30/2018 8
