Topic: NCCF Product Upgrade 1.12.3


Date/Time Issued: September 22, 2023 1930 UTC


Product(s) or Data Impacted:  OHC, RAVE, MetOp-B/C ASCAT UHR, N21 ADP, N21 VolcanicAsh and SNPP/N20/N21 eFire VIIRS I-Band


Date/Time of Initial Impact: September 28, 2023, TBD UTC


Date/Time of Expected End: September 28, 2023,  TBD UTC


Length of Outage: N/A


Details/Specifics of Change:


The satellite derived Ocean Heat Content (OHC),  SNPP/NOAA-20/GOES-16/17/18 blended Regional Advanced Baseline Imager and Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite Emissions (RAVE), MetOp-B/C Advanced Scatterometer (ASCAT) Ultra High Resolution (UHR) winds NOAA-21 Volcanic Ash and NOAA-21 Aerosol Detection Product (ADP) products are being migrated from on-prem systems to the NESDIS Common Cloud Framework (NCCF). The products are planned to be declared operational in NCCF and distributed from PDA OPS on September 28, 2023. The PDA short names and image file names for the NCCF OHC products have been modified and users will need to make necessary changes to their subscriptions. The test products have been available on PDA I&T now. Users can start subscribing to these data products from PDA I&T. The test data product short names are appended with “_TEST”.



Note:  The legacy on-prem OHC and ASCAT UHR will keep running in parallel for 60 days after the NCCF OHC and ASCAT UHR products are operationally available. They will be turned off afterwards.

List of Scientific Changes: New quality monitoring metadata has been added to the code, as suggested by the science team. Each basin now uses a predetermined latitude/longitude box of 1°x1° and calculates the average, standard deviation, and variance of the points in that box. The resolution of the product is 0.25°x0.25°, resulting in 25 points per calculation.
