Globally, users are looking for new ways to assimilate SNPP data into numerical weather prediction models and leverage those observations in climate studies and forecasts.
NOAA/NESDIS/OSPO has a well-defined policy on access and distribution of environmental satellite data and products.
OSPO’s data access review policy has been refined to include both NOAA and non-NOAA datasets to permit access by external users outside of the Environmental Satellite Processing Center (ESPC) domain when a valid real-time mission need exists.
OSPO has already approved several SNPP data access requests (DARs) for global users and will continue to re-validate the efficiency of this process in the coming years as new dissemination systems provide dynamic data subscription capability.
Scientists at NOAA/NESDIS have worked diligently to prepare the continuation of current data products and product upgrades for SNPP.
Product Area Leads (PALs) at OSPO are actively working to ensure a smooth and quick transition of these products into operations.
Operational users requiring access to these new data sets will do so via submission of a Data Access Request (DAR) to OSPO.
Operational implementation of SNPP products serving user community is currently underway.

NESDIS OSPO Data Access Policy available at:http://www.ospo.noaa.gov/Organization/About/access.htmlContact: [email protected]
•To consistently vet user requests for near real-time satellite data and products based on organizational affiliation or type of application
•To effectively manage data distribution resources to ensure effective system performance
Product generation and distribution of large volumes of data are a significant challenge for the existing infrastructure.
•Mixed system platforms will be consolidated to improve sustainability
•ESPC Network capacity will be increased (near future)
•Hardware refresh planned on a regular basis
