College Park, MD
Expected Outcomes
- Enhanced interaction, coordination, and communication between and among environmental satellite programs
- Improved user access, reception and readiness for data, technology and applications from current and future polar-orbiting and geostationary environmental satellite constellations
- Improved use of environmental satellite data by leveraging science advances, data fusion, blended products, decision aids, advanced visualization, training, instrument and product calibration and validation, and new data assimilation techniques
- Recognition as the premier environmental satellite users’ event in the Western Hemisphere
- Reduced costs of participation, travel and logistics by combining the Satellite Direct Readout, GOES and POES/JPSS communities in one conference
