Coordination Group for Meteorological Satellites - CGMS
Intended to stimulate discussion of potential synergistic efforts between CGMS Virtual Labs and NASA ESD capacity strengthening activities
Provides overview of capacity strengthening activities across ESD, with summaries of projects from ESTO, R&A, and Applied Sciences
Capacity activities discussed: Access to NASA satellite data (LANCE, IMAPP) Transition research to operations (JCSDA, SPoRT) Students to utilize Earth science data (GLOBE, NESSF, SARP) Technology development projects (Next Gen RT Geodetic Sensor, Disasters/Risk
Mgmt) ASP’s Capacity Building Program, comprised of four Center-led efforts (ARSET,
DEVELOP, GOMI, SERVIR) and HQ-level activities (CEOS WGCapD, USWP, GEOSS in the Americas)

Land Atmosphere Near real time Capability for EOS (LANCE, co-located with NASA EOSDIS) processes data quickly to serve application users, operational agencies, and researchers who need EOS products with faster turnaround
International MODIS/AIRS Processing Package (IMAPP) allows ground stations to create a suite of MODIS, AIRS, AMSU, AMSR-E products from Terra and Aqua and is freely available
Strengthening the capacity to access NASA satellite data

Joint Center for Satellite Data Assimilation (JCSDA) is a collaborative effort between NOAA, NASA, US Navy, and US Air Force that enables assimilation of satellite observations daily and facilitates information sharing among agencies
Short-term Prediction Research and Transition (SPoRT) center is the primary operation transition interface with National Weather Service NASA data tested and transitioned to NOAA
Improved ability to transition research products to operations

Next Generation Real Time Geodetic Sensor provides tropospheric signal delays and precipitable water vapor estimates for forecasting severe storms and flooding and has been implemented into 26 GPS stations.
Disasters and Risk Management Regional projects to support flood response in Namibia, hurricanes
and earthquakes response in Caribbean Collaboration with CEOS WGCapD (Capacity, data and democracy
working group for CEOS) Supports CEOS WGISS, which is a working group for information
systems and services, to fosters collaboration among EO-data users in developing systems/services

Global Learning and Observations to Benefit the Environment (GLOBE) focuses on primary and secondary school-science and education on a global scale.
NASA Earth and Space Science Fellowships (NESSF) supports graduate students in developing the skills and expertise to utilize Earth observations.
Student Airborne Research Program (SARP) provides undergraduate students an opportunity to participate in a hands-on research experience that includes an airborne and field campaign.
Strengthening the capacity of students

Applied Remote Sensing Training (ARSET) increases utility of NASA Earth science and model data by providing training to decision-makers and applied science professionals in water resources and air quality areas
DEVELOP supports young and transitioning professionals in working on applied science projects with NASA science advisors and end-users
Gulf of Mexico Initiative (GOMI) applies Earth observations to address coastal management issues and enhance the ecological and economic health of the Gulf region.
SERVIR is (w/ the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID)), provides Earth observation data and science applications to help developing regions improve their environ mental decision making.
