Initial Joint Polar System - CDA/SOCC Upgrade (IJPS-CSU)
National
Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), National
Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service
(NESDIS) has entered into an agreement with the European
Organization for the Exploitation of Meteorological Satellites
(EUMETSAT) for participation in the Initial Joint Polar
System (IJPS) program. In the IJPS Agreement, NOAA and
EUMETSAT agree to procure and operate their Polar-orbiting
satellites in a manner beneficial to both parties and
the world's meteorological community. This joint system
will consist of two fully coordinated independent polar
satellite systems, the NOAA Polar-orbiting Operational
Environmental Satellite (POES) system and the EUMETSAT
Meterological Operational Satellite (Metop). To support
the IJPS program, NESDIS requires design, development,
and engineering technical support to upgrade and augment
the current NESDIS POES ground system at the Satellite
Operations Control Center (SOCC) at Suitland, Maryland
and Command and Data Acquisition (CDA) Stations at Fairbanks,
Alaska and Wallops, Virginia.
