Details/Specifics of Change: We have implemented MetOp-B/C Clouds/Winds in the NCCF (NESDIS Common Cloud Framework) User Acceptance Testing (UAT) environment. The products are now available on PDA I&T and short names are listed below. We plan to transition the Clouds/Winds product generation into the NCCF Production (PROD) environment by March 15th, replacing the operational MetOp-B Clouds/Winds products with NCCF MetOp-B/C Clouds/Winds products.
Products: MetOp-B and
MetoOp-C
Cloud Mask
Cloud Phase
Cloud Height (Cloud-top-Height, Cloud-top-Pressure,
Cloud-top-Temperature)
Cloud Cover Layers
Cloud Type
Cloud Optical Depth
Cloud Particle Size Distribution
Cloud Liquid/Ice Water Path
Cloud Base Height products
Arctic and Antarctic Polar Winds
NOTE: Current MetOp-B Clouds products will be turned off on April 15, 2022 and replaced with NCCF MetOp-B/C Clouds. Both versions will be distributed on the PDA from March 15, 2022 through April 15, 2022. NCCF MetOp-B/C Clouds products will be operationally distributed on the PDA for the first time starting on March 15, 2022.
Current MetOp-B Winds products will be turned off on June 15, 2022 and replaced with NCCF MetOp-B/C Winds. Both versions will be distributed on the PDA from March 15, 2022 through June 15, 2022.
