MISSION |
 |
| |
|
To develop, test, demonstrate, validate, and provide algorithms for end-to-end GOES-R
Ground Segment capabilities, provide sustained life cycle calibration/validation and
product algorithm enhancements, and to ensure user readiness of GOES-R data and derived products.
|
| |
AWG Role |
|
| |
|
AWG is responsible for managing the development and selection of algorithms for GOES-R
and to participate in various capacities in a number of different calibration/validation activities.
AWG will provide oversight of the schedules, activities, and budget expenditures needed for
an integrated program of algorithm development and calibration/validation activities that span
the entire lifecycle of the GOES-R program.

| |
Work Phases |
|
| |
|
All AWG activities are organized around and executed within three key work phases that align
with GOES-R Ground Segment Project activities. These three key phases include:
1) Algorithm Development and Pre-Operational Demonstration Phase;
2) Calibration, Validation, and Verification Phase; and
3) Algorithm Sustainment and Product Tailoring Phase.
All activities undertaken within each phase follow defined and repeatable processes that reduce program risks.
