Observing Systems Architecture (OSA)
NOAA Observing Systems Architecture (NOSA)
Mission: OBSERVATION SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE (OSA): Responsible for developing
and analyzing NOAA's integrated observation target architecture; the blueprint, standards,
processes, and investments needed to build an integrated observational capability that delivers
higher-value data and products to end-users.
Works with Requirements and Planning to assess NOAA's observation requirements relative to current
and planned observational capabilities. Maintains NOAA value model to prioritize requirements.
Provides investment recommendations to the NOSC that comply with the target architecture and best
meet NOAA, national, and international observation and data management priorities. Analyzes advanced
technologies to close observational gaps identified by comparing NOAA requirements versus capabilities
gap assessments.
