• TBR-1 Is there a backup to the NESDIS IDP for
  providing the ADCS data to ARGOS in the case
  NESDIS is not operational? What reconfiguration
  of the IDPS software/hardware is
  necessary/possible for one of the other IDP to
  take up the NESDIS role? Open Steve Lutz
• TBR-2 How/when does the IDPS receive the original
  algorithms/cal coefficients to convert the
  housekeeping telemetry to EU?  How does IDPS
  receive any updates to the coefficients and/or
  algorithms? Open Steve Lutz/Greg Barber
• TBR-3 What level of aggregation is acceptable for
  the ADCS data when provided to NESDIS? Open
  Chris O'Connors
• TBR-4 What is the mechanism for ARGOS to get
  commands to C3S (via IPO?, NESDIS?, other?)  It
  is not desirable for them to have direct access

NDE Action

• The spacecraft sends granules based upon time.
  IPO/NDE are fairly flexible in terms of the time
  ranges for delivering packets
• In the range of a 1 to 10 minutes per granule
• the products can be ordered via the Data Delivery
  Service in products that extend up to an orbit.
• Two values the granule the smallest time
  increment of data that can be ordered and the
  packets delivered to USGPC.
• What Does USGPC get currently?
• NESDIS/IPD 1 orbit (102 minutes)
• IJPS era proposed 15 minutes (streaming data)
