Abstract
NOAA’s Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS) acquires and distributes global environmental data from multiple polar-orbiting satellites. The program plays a critical role in NOAA's mission to understand and predict changes in weather, climate, oceans and coasts, and the space environment, supporting the Nation's economy and protecting lives and property. The JPSS Common Ground System (GS) operates NOAA’s flag ship polar weather satellites, providing over 5 TB of science mission data daily to support weather forecast model development world-wide. The JPSS CGS also supports partner missions, providing flight operations, data acquisition, data routing, science data processing, and communications services to a diverse set of both domestic and international missions.
