- Description
- The Department of Commerce (DOC), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) National Environmental Satellite Data Information Services (NESDIS), as a result of Presidential Decision Directive NSTC-2, created the Integrated Program Office (IPO). The IPO is part of a tri-agency agreement between the Department of Commerce, the Department of Defense (DOD) and National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The IPO employs personnel from the DOC, DOD, and NASA. As part of its mission, the IPO is responsible for the development and deployment of the National Polar-orbiting Operational Environmental Satellite System (NPOESS). Additional NPOESS program information can be obtained from the following website: http://npoess.noaa.gov. The NPOESS is a satellite system used to monitor global environmental conditions, and collect and disseminate data related to: weather, atmosphere, oceans, land and the near-space environment. The NPOESS requirements were developed by the user community and are captured in the NPOESS Integrated Operational Requirements Document (IORD). To achieve its mission, the IPO has undertaken a far-reaching program of sensor development, and satellite transition and evolution to provide complete coverage of environmental conditions for civil, military, and scientific purposes. NPOESS data will be processed into Environmental Data Records (EDRs) for use by a number of operational communities. The IPO’s operational effectiveness depends on its ability to keep pace with rapidly developing technologies. To accomplish this, the IPO funds research and development initiatives through its Internal Government Studies (NPOESS) program. The NPOESS program consists of teams of scientists and engineers from Government laboratories and centers, Federally-Funded Research and Development Centers (FFRDCs), universities, and industry. These teams are tasked to identify and test technologies and techniques that are able to meet NPOESS requirements and objectives.
