Overview of NOAA SAT Team and Its Scope

The NOAA SAT team is a technical group with expertise in various fields like remote sensing, data assimilation, and impact assessment. They provide performance assessment and expert feedback to NESDIS, assisting decision-makers in making informed decisions. The team does not advocate for specific sensor or technology types but offers expert opinions on scientific problems related to architecture, formulation, and execution. Issues are addressed through the SAT advisory board, covering topics like user application needs, impact assessment experiments, and scientific studies.

2. SAT Overview C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-10.png icons\noaa_icons-10.png C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa SAT is a NOAA technical team that has a diverse set of expertise in remote sensing, data assimilation, impact assessment, sensors engineering, calibration, meteorology, oceanography, land/hydrology, etc. Core team is federal employees from NOAA and other federal agencies (DoD, NASA). Associate members (contractors, universities, others) that provide complementary subject matter expertise in a diverse set of areas. The SAT support includes providing performance assessment and expert feedback to NESDIS. The SAT provides facts-based input, which accounts for multiple scientific and strategic factors so that decision-makers can make sound, informed decisions based on these Core-SAT s recommendations. Terms of Reference signed in 2020 by Vanessa Griffin (OSAAP Director), Harry Cikanek (STAR Director), Greg Mandt (JPSS Director), Pam Sullivan (GOES-R Director) Elsayed Tallat (OPPA Director), and Karen St. Germain (DAAS, NESDIS).

3. Scope C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa icons\noaa_icons-10.png icons\noaa_icons-10.png C:\Users\jacqui.fenner\Desktop\PTT templates\images\noaa The SAT does not have an advocacy role for any specific sensor type or technology type. The SAT is dedicated to providing facts-based input, which accounts for multiple scientific and strategic factors so that decision-makers can make sound, informed decisions based on these Core-SAT s recommendations. SAT provides expert opinion, feedback, and technical assessment of scientific problems relating to architecture, formulation, and execution. The specific issues will be brought to the attention of SAT by various groups in NOAA and triaged through the SAT advisory board. These issues may relate to: Determining users applications observational needs, current and future Performing Impacts assessment experiments on users applications and systems Performing scientific studies (impact assessment, geophysical capability evaluation, etc.) as needed Interacting with outside experts on an as needed basis Supporting the effort of the design and optimization of constellations Reach out to users, stakeholders, and international partners to provide awareness, build support and seek feedback on the science requirements, and scientific tradeoffs.
