Profiler Control Center
The Profiler Control Center (PCC) located in Boulder, CO is the focal point
for profiler network operations. Data from all profiler sites are ingested by the
Profiler Hub computer system and made available for display within six minutes of
arrival. Meteorologists and technicians use graphical and text-based displays to
monitor profiler data and status. PCC technicians use diagnostic tools to remotely
monitor and diagnose profiler system failures. Once a failure is detected, the
PCC technicians coordinate remedial maintenance activities with National Weather Service
(NWS)
technicians. Replacement profiler system components are warehoused at the
National Logistics Supply Center
(NLSC)
and shipped to local NWS Field Offices. NWS field
engineers visit the profiler sites at their earliest opportunity and either
repair or replace failed components or Line Replaceable Units (LRU).
If you need to contact the PCC call (303) 497-6033. If you need to contact a
specific employee, see the
