ASF2 (10m)• ViaSat/SA 10m system• X- and S-band downlink, with no
uplink capability• Currently supports ERS-2, SciSat
and COSMIC1-6

ASF1 (11m)• 11.28m ViaSat system similar to WGS
and SG-1 antenna systems• Support for X- and S-band downlink
and S-band uplink• Currently supports
– QuikSCAT, AIM, SAMPEX, ERS-2, SciSat, GRACE-1/-2, COSMIC1-6, FastSat, SAC-D

SAR-Derived Winds• ASF has worked with
NOAA and Johns Hopkins University to implement algorithms for wind retrieval from SAR data
• Wind speed derived from SAR backscatter and direction is retrieved from QuikSCAT data
• Operational products were delivered <4hours after collection when data were available

DMSP – NWS, Air Force, FCDAS, GINAFrom Air Force Out Brief:
• The Elmendorf AFB Mark IVB will be removed– This site is used by the 11th OWS,
subordinate AF units, the NWS Alaska Region Headquarters (ARH), and subordinate NWS ARH WFO.
• The 11th & 17th OWS and NWS ARH require the DMSP RTD capability provided by the Mark IVB to persist current operations
• Multi-agency collaboration needed to achieve this solution

Alaska Region• Fairbanks is a major center for satellite reception: NOAA,
NASA, USGS, UAF, commercial satellites• Custom products for Alaska Region NWS• Work with UW SSEC on processing software• Upgrade to capture NPP at UAF-GINA
– VIIRS implementation of GOES-R PG products?• Data to SPoRT, CIMSS, CIRA, & NWS Alaska
– ftp/http, ADDE, LDM• DMSP data to NWS and AFWA• GINA can host VM processors at NESDIS Fairbanks CDAS to
reduce latency and provide a .gov home• GINA will be fully staffed by Sept 2011

Pacific Region• Ewa Beach site in (partial) operations• X-band in Hawaii deferred to future year (to be
sited at Hawaii Community College)• University of Hawaii has in-house X-band
experience• UAF-GINA and UW-Madison will work in support
of UH, if requested• NPP part of planned Hawaii station?• GOES-R proving ground community stands ready
to support UH: SPoRT, CIRA, STAR, CIMSS, GINA
