CIMSS GOES Realtime Derived Products

Real-time

• Comparing different versions of independent (non-merged) SFOV CTP DPI
• Comparisons of real-time GOES Sounder TPW with other sensors:
  • GOES and MWR comparisons of TPW at ARM-SGP sites in Oklahoma.
  • Higher resolution, regional view (Southern Plains - Lower Mississippi Valley) of GOES, guess, and/or raob for TPW, LI, or just all imagery.
  • GOES and MODIS comparisons of TPW from CIMSS.
  • GOES and GPS comparisons of TPW from FSL.
• Preliminary real-time examples of new experimental developments with GOES Sounder data:
  • Comparing GOES observed versus CRAS forecast imagery ( N cen US IR or NE Pac WV).
  • Comparing TPW, LI, and CTP DPI from different sources of GOES Sounder processing (for larger scale US East of Rockies or smaller scale Central Plains or Western US).
  • Comparing difference images of GOES TPW and CTP DPI from FPDT-SFOV minus Ops 5x5 products.
  • Comparing different versions of CIMSS development DPI (TPW,LI) (or zoom over Central Plains)
  • Comparing CIMSS development DPI, and ancillaries, of TPW, LI, or other images zoomed over So Cen US.

Historical

• Examples from older GOES satellite test periods:
  • GOES-12 check-out (fall 2001)
  • GOES-11 checkout
  • GOES-9 re-activation (winter 2001-02)
  • GOES-9 Pacific duty starting in spring 2003
