Update #1: Please note, the declaration of “operational” on March 30, 2023 applies only to the product generation (PG) platform. Thus, the aforementioned products will become operationally available on a new PG platform, the NCCF, on March 30, 2023, but NOAA-21 data itself will be in provisional maturity at that time. SNPP and NOAA-20 data are already considered operational. Users may test the flow of these data from the new distribution point by subscribing to these products in PDA I&T starting on March 16, 2023.

Topic: Declaring SNPP/NOAA-20/NOAA-21 Key Performance Parameter (KPP) VIIRS Imagery and VIIRS SDR/Imagery EDR Passthroughs Operational in NCCF

Date/Time Issued: March 2, 2023 1956Z

Product(s) or Data Impacted: None

Date/Time of Initial Impact: March 30, 2023 TBD

Date/Time of Expected End: March 30, 2023 TBD

Length of Outage: N/A

Details/Specifics of Change:
The Key Performance Parameter (KPP) VIIRS imagery and VIIRS SDR/Imagery EDR passthrough products for SNPP and NOAA-20 and NOAA-21 (beta) are being migrated from NDE on-prem to NESDIS Common Cloud Framework (NCCF). These SNPP, NOAA-20 and NOAA-21 products are planned to be declared operational in NCCF on March 30, 2023. The PDA short names and product file names will remain the same during this migration. The test products will be available on PDA I&T. Users can start subscribing to these data products from PDA I&T on March 16, 2023. The test data product short names are appended with “_TEST”. PDA will perform best efforts to sustain the three satellites (SNPP, NOAA-20 and NOAA-21). However, if the PDA resource capacity reaches the ceiling of maximum, the tertiary satellite data will be dumped from PDA OPS and be distributed to PDA I&T only.

Updated products included in this release are:
