Satellite Hyperspectral Sensor Workshop - Agenda
Each day's proceedings and agenda will
follow the list of workshop questions, by number, moving in order through the 15
questions defined in the workshop prospectus. Speakers have been asked to
address their to talks to focus primarily on one given workshop question.
There are some participants who will be addressing 2 different questions in two
separate talks.
Please find posted below a draft of the workshop agenda with questions,
speakers, times, and events. We request that all speakers please review
their times, topics, and name spellings for accuracy so that we can make
any needed corrections as soon as possible, particularly in the cases
where presenters are giving two different talks. Please contact Roger
Heymann with any questions or corrections.
Please note that the workshop prospectus questions have been reduced from
16 to 15 and have been re-ordered to group hyperspectral applications to
weather forecasting on Tuesday, atmospheric chemistry and greenhouse gases
to Wednesday and Thursday. Topics were re-ordered to maximize the ability
of key participants to be able to attend in spite of other schedule
constraints.

Question 4 |
With respect to the industry research and studies on requirements, technology, trades, led by U.S. NOAA NESDIS for the GOES R satellite series: what was learned about hyperspectral sensor availability, performance, minimized risks, and costs? One of the outcomes of the last phase of NESDIS GOES R led study with industry were hyperspectral sensor concepts minimized in performance to constrain costs for a very limited budget, directed to meeting operational meteorology forecast needs of the NWS (highly accurate vertical profiles, and 1hr 67o LZA Earth scanning radius).
- What did this GOES R minimized study sensor (s) look like?
- What can such a sensor look like?
- What could be a very limited core basic list of operational meteorology/weather forecasting algorithms/products to minimize initial acquisition ground system costs yet still meet core NWS forecast product needs:
- What was the initial EUMETSAT IASI product/algorithm list?
- What could an initial minimal list of algorithm/products be to meet weather forecast needs such as by NOAA NWS?
- What could be added at minimum design, cost, risk burden for atmospheric chemistry, and GHGs?
- What can be said about the state of available hyperspectral sensor technology for satellite applications (e.g. LEO, GEO orbits)
- Is there a role for GHG measurements in GEO Orbit?

Question 15 |
What are some of the new sensor concepts for satellite hyperspectral sensors emerging to deal with operational meteorology with finer spatial resolution, atmospheric chemistry, and climate monitoring including greenhouse gas monitoring to ground level point sources?
- One such new hyperspectral concept is JPL's Advanced Remote-sensing Imaging Emission Spectrometer (ARIES) reflecting an integration into one sensor, abilities of both the Moderate-Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) 36 band multispectral Imager and AIRS (2378 spectral bands) hyperspectral grating spectrometer.
- Do such concepts from a NOAA perspective of being an operational monitoring agency (versus science research, and technology and acquisition system development) represent an advance so great beyond current generation sensors (AIRS, IASI, CRIS, TES, OCO, GOSAT) that a NASA development mission would first be advisable?
- Can such sensors meet the core requirements of NOAA such as rapid earth view scanning in geostationary orbit?
