Session 101 – AWIPS/RGB Summary Ed Mandel and Mike Johnson discussed plans for developing

and implementing plug-ins into the AWIPS II baseline Time to baseline could take as little as six weeks

Dan Nietfeld provided a perspective from the field on AWIPS II and discussed his current and foreseen participation in proving ground activities Value of satellite-based, high vertical resolution environmental

soundings to operations still largely unknown Matt Smith gave an overview of the EPDT workshop, including

results from a brainstorming session, and then summarized recent AWIPS II activities at SPoRT

Jordan Gerth shared AWIPS II development activities at CIMSS and discussed the RGB capabilities of the software

Curtis Seaman and Deb Molenar discussed RGB products for solving meteorological problems, and explained recent interactions between CIRA and NWS forecast offices

Session 101 – AWIPS/RGB

Attention RequiredQuestions for Discussion

Demonstration procedures and logistics for operational AWIPS II sites

Data delivery strategy for GOES-R information into AWIPS II

Broader access to AWIPS II training resources/workshops

Diversified training to meet the needs of NWS participants, NOAA partners, and liaisons

Closer interactions on disseminating VIIRS imagery

How should we focus our AWIPS II priorities?

What is the end point for proving ground activities in terms of transitioning from experimental to operational?

What are the specific advantages of RGBs over individual bands?

Do RGB composites supplement or supplant AWG products? Can quantitative and qualitative products co-exist?
