STAR ProductsCritical Support for NOAAThis strategic goal encompasses support from NOAA Offices which helps NOAA achieve its mission. The major contributions from STAR in this area include:
Calibration and Validation SupportSTAR continually calibrates and validates data from NOAA's satellites to ensure the data are accurate, reliable and representative. Without STAR's intervention in processing satellite data, operational products using such data would not be as accurate or reliable, and EVERY user would be required perform these adjustments prior to using NOAA satellite data. STAR provides significant value to the community of satellite users via its calibration and validation role alone. It allows every user to derive immediate benefit from satellite data, whether raw data or products, by providing data quality control cost-effectively in a single office prior to distribution.
