##  EOS DIRECT BROADCAST DATA 

**SPoRT relies on EOS direct broadcast (DB) ground stations for access to real-time MODIS, AIRS, and AMSR-E imagery**
** ****Univ. of Wisconsin and Univ. of S. Florida sites**
** ****latency to SPoRT is < 30min from overpass time**
** ****some EOS products produced at DB site**

** ****EOS DIRECT BROADCAST DATA **

_**SPoRT**_**: **
** ****subset data at DB site **
** ****reformat data/products**
** ****produce value added products**
** ****assessments**
** ****disseminate to NWS WFOs in SR**
** ****full resolution data in AWIPS**
** ****training**

**Timely data and products are critical to weather applications!**

## DATA OBTAINED FROM DB SITES

**Access EOS data via McIDAS ADDE and ftp servers**
_**University of Wisconsin**_
**MODIS imagery, some Level 2 products**
**AMSR-E imagery and Level 2 products**
**AIRS Level 1 data (all channels) and Level 2 profiles**
_**University of South Florida**_
**MODIS imagery, Level 2 ocean products**
**Majority of products produced with EOS science team algorithms**

## Dissemination of all SPoRT data via Local Data Manager (LBM) by summer 2007 (via Southern Region office)

**DATA AND PRODUCTS TO WFOs**

_**MODIS Products**_
**high res. imagery (6-8 channels)**
**natural & false color composites**
**fog  product**
**TPW and atmos stability**
**cloud phase / pressure**
**land surface temperature**
**SST and composite**
_**AMSR-E**_
**Rain rate and type**
**SST, PW, wind speed**
**Composite TPW (SSMI,AMSU,AMSR-E)**

**Web display used for monitoring product generation for AWIPS – weather.msfc.nasa.gov/sport/sport_eosdata.html**

_**Nowcasting Data**_
**lightning flash densities / rates**
**convective initiation fields**
**GOES aviation products (NESDIS)**
_**Forecast data**_
**WRF 4km model runs (NSSL)**
_**Future Products**_
**MODIS ocean color**
**MODIS fire products**
_**AIRS**_**: profiles (T, Td)**
**           ****cloud products**
**                 ****3D moisture fields**

## SPoRT
Huntsville (since 2/2003) – all products
Birmingham (all MODIS – SST)
Nashville (all MODIS – SST)
Mobile (all MODIS plus AMSR-E)
Miami (all MODIS plus AMSR-E)
Great Falls (all MODIS – SST)
Melbourne (aviation and polar TPW)
Fire locations to MT WFOs (Fall 2007)
Will provide 1-4km MODIS, aviation, and polar TPW to all SR sites by Fall 2007, high resolution on a collaborative basis

**WFOs RECEIVING DATA**

_**Univ. Wisc.**_
**1-4km MODIS data to 10 Western and Central region sites based on SPoRT paradigm (Spring 2007)**
_**NRL - Monterey**_
** ****desire to provide MODIS and DOD products to local WFO and forecast centers (in N-AWIPS rather than via web)**
_**NESDIS OSDPD**_
**polar products (atmosphere and ocean) to forecast centers in N-AWIPS)**

## Provide relevant SPoRT data to regional offices for dissemination to WFOs
Continue work with other agencies on transition of data to WFOs and forecast Centers
Work with AWIPS II team to facilitate the dissemination of NPP/NPOESS data to WFOs
