NOSA Geospatial Database
Of the 98 Observing Systems currently listed as NOAA observing systems
• 83 observing systems have geospatial data and are shown on the previous map
• 21 are still missing any geospatial information
• Still have lots of work to do

New CLASS Mission Statement
NOAA's National Data Centers and their world-wide clientele of customers look to CLASS as the sole NOAA IT infrastructure project in which all NOAA’s current and future environmental data sets will reside. CLASS provides permanent, secure storage, and safe, efficient data discovery and access between the Data Centers and the customers.

NOAA’s Contribution to the GEOSS “System of Systems”
• Comprehensive Large Array Stewardship System (CLASS)
– Web-based data archive and distribution system for NOAAs large array data
– Reengineer legacy data storage and access systems and blend new and efficient technologies
– Ensure the stewardship of existing (e.g., POES, GOES, NEXRAD, in-situ) and rapidly approaching large-array data sets (e.g., NPP/NPOESS, EOS, METOP, NEXRAD)
– Provides permanent, secure storage and safe, efficient access between NOAA and its customers

U.S. Contribution to GEOSSInteragency Working Group on Earth Observations
IWGEO’s Vision• Enable a healthy
public, economy, and planet through an integrated, comprehensive, and sustained Earth observation system.

Data Management System for Earth Observations
• Data Management Needs– New Systems mean 100-fold
increase in data– Current systems already face
challenges– Development of browser and
visualization systems— underpinned by core geospatial technologies
– Interoperability through protocols and standards and a
services based architecture– Agencies provided framework
to meet the challenges Draft IESO DM Plan in final review

NOAA’s Role in GEOSS
• NOAA: Where Science Creates Value• Earth observations…
– Are at the core of NOAA’s mission– Support virtually every activity we perform
• NOAA has…– Observing capabilities being advanced through scientific and
technological research– A broad scope of domestic and international partnerships– Commitment to transform research into useful, operational
information

Near Term OpportunitiesGEOSS
• Improved Observations for Disaster Warnings
• Global Land Observing System
• Sea Level Observing System
• National Integrated Drought Information System
• Air Quality Assessment and Forecast System
• Data Management System for Earth Observations

NOAA EOPA
• The NOAA Earth Observation Partnership of the Americas is focusing on: – data access and communication; – implementing necessary upgrades to ground
equipment for next generation satellites; – and strengthening opportunities for education, training
and related environmental sustainable development efforts between the U.S. and the region.
• NOAA has advocated leadership in outreach, capacity building and data utilization activities in the Americas where NOAA's geostationary resources are available, similar to how Europe is focusing on Africa.

EOPA The Way Ahead
• Ideas being explored include: loaning of a GOES satellite in storage; South American instruments flown on NOAA's future satellite missions; enhance education on satellite data use; and greater coordination with WMO networks and systems.
• NOAA International Affairs are coordinating.
