Requirements and Planning (RAP)

Requirements and planning (RAP)
Responsible for the collection, standardization, configuration management, and assessment of all NOAA observation requirements. Develops and implements the processes to (1) trace NOAA observation requirements up to Performance Measures and down to current, planned, and potential observing capabilities, and (2) verify and validate requirements. Works with the Observation System Architecture (OSA) component to assess observation requirements and identify gaps in capabilities. Facilitates documentation of GEO, USGEO and CRSSP observation needs to determine common requirements and the comprehensive set of observing capabilities needed to address multi-agency missions.
