A Multisensor 4-D Blended Water Vapor Product for Weather Forecasting
CSU Project #: 5-31949Sponsor: National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)
Primary Investigator: Dr. Stanley Q. Kidder
Co-Investigator(s): John Forsythe Dr. Andrew S. Jones
Start Date: January 1st, 2011
End Date: July 4th, 2013
Objectives:
- Work with NASA's Short-term Prediction Research and Transition Center (SPoRT) to: ingest water vapor retrievals from NASA research satellites; blend the research and operational moisture retrievals on an hourly basis into a product with layers; distribute the products to forecasters in AWIPS format, train them how to use the products, and evaluate the products based on user feedback.
