Plans for ESTO Interim Review

• AIST-QRS-06-0026
• Title The Detection and Tracking of Satellite
  Image Features Associated with Extreme Physical
  Events for Sensor Web Targeting Observing

2
Required Elements

• Primary Findings, Technology Development Results
  and Technical Status
• Results of tests and proof-of-concept
  demonstrations
• Description of work planned for remainder of
  project
• Critical issues
• Cost and Schedule status
• Schedule slippage/acceleration
• Schedule milestone chart for major tasks
• Cost data sheet
• List total costs committed, obligated and costed
• Graphical representation of projected and actual
  project expenditures

3
Optional Elements

• Background info to orient reviewers
• Photos, illustrations, diagrams pertaining to
  research
• How we fit with other NASA work
• Dependencies and how we manage them
• NOAA cooperation and follow-on support
• Journal/conference publications and presentations

4
Logistics

• 1.5 hour (90 min) review implies 30 slides
• Slides must be uploaded 2 days before review
  (June 1st or latest by 4th )
• Images must be reduced to 100dpi for display,
  then compressed to jpeg for upload
• Will need to record actions from the review in
  order to update slides and upload to Interim
  Report in e-Books

Cost and Schedule Status

• Milestone slippage
• Overall WCS Phase I data flow was delayed one
  month
• To resolve issues with GOES data sources,
  projection and grid resolution
• To decide content and form of GOES metadata input
  to WCS
• Updated milestone schedule
• Cost data sheet
• Commitments to GMU, UofWisc, and NSSL
• Graph of projected and actual costs
• total by month
