Description
The Blended Global Sea Surface Winds products contain ocean surface wind vectors and wind stress on a global 0.25 degree grid, in multiple time resolutions of 6-hourly and monthly, with an 11-year (1995-2005) monthly climatology. Daily files from a direct average of the 6-hourly data were also produced but are not included in this archive. The period of record is July 9, 1987 to September 30, 2011 for product Version 1.2, released in July 2007. Wind speeds were generated by blending available and selected microwave and scatterometer observations using a Simple spatiotemporally weighted Interpolation (SI) method. The following satellite retrieval datasets from Remote Sensing Systems (RSS) were used for Version 1.2: SSMI Version 6, TMI Version 4, QSCAT Version 3a, and AMSRE Version 5 (updated using the SSMI rain rate). The wind directions are from the NCEP-DOE Reanalysis 2 (NRA-2). The model wind directions are interpolated onto the blended wind speed grids. The 6-hourly satellite-scaled global 0.25-degree grid wind stresses are computed as: taux_s = -[(w_s/w_m)**2]*taux_m tauy_s = -[(w_s/w_m)**2]*tauy_m where 's' indicates satellite-scaled values and 'm' indicates NRA-2 model values interpolated to the satellite grid. Files are in netCDF format and available to users via FTP and THREDDS. A near real-time (NRT) variant of the product is generated quasi-daily to satisfy the needs of real-time users. The publicly available NRT data were replaced by the delayed-mode research quality data on a monthly basis through the end of September 2011, at which time the Seawinds production was impacted by the loss of data from the AMSR-E instrument failure. Production of the delayed-mode research products ends with the loss of AMSR-E in Version 1.2; a future version will extend beyond September 2011. The NRT products are continued after September 2011; however, this archive only includes the delayed-mode research products as the NRT data have a lower maturity rating removing the basis for archiving those data.

The proposed hyperspectral plus LWIR system will deliver high signal to noise performance, a wide spectral range, nominally 365 nm to 1.7 um, a single long wave IR band, low optical aberration This sensor system is designed to fit within the size, weight, and power (SWaP) envelopes of small to medium sized UAS (such as the Sierra operated by NASA Ames Research Center) and manned light aircraft (such as the Cessna 172). The system is based on an anamorphic hyperspectral imager. In addition to the UV/Vis/SWIR hyperspectral imager the system will include a single band Long Wave IR (LWIR) imager providing temperature information which is useful for a wide variety of environmental research, and extends the application of the instrument to a number of problems including disaster response, oil spill mapping and detection, and wild fire research. With this NASA SBIR proposal we will develop the system specifically for environmental research and monitoring to a TRL 8 with the final six months of the Phase II dedicated to calibration, flight tests, and development of a certified installation for light aircraft.

Summary
Description
<p>To improve instruments functionality in a harsh rocket propulsion test environment, this project developed an intelligent strain gauge.&nbsp; The initial design for this project was a novel foil strain gauge with the capability to measure strain and temperature (Type 1). &nbsp;The novel foil strain gauge pattern features the integration of a silicon-diode temperature sensor and a self-heating element. The silicon-diode sensor provides the gauge temperature for performing real-time temperature compensation algorithms. The silicon-diode temperature sensor was used in the initial gauge pattern due to its enhanced abilities, but after refinement, resistive temperature element was then embedded into a second gauge pattern (Type 2). Then, the debond detection function was tested by monitoring the temperature of the gauge while the gauge was heated and cooled. The temperature signature (rate of heating/cooling) from the gauge was analyzed for both bonded and debonded gauges. Finally, a small control circuit was created with the capability to self-execute a bond integrity check, and perform real-time temperature compensation was also added. By combining the control circuit with the special gauge the smart gauge was converted into a fully functioning intelligent sensor system.</p>

Description
The NOAA Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) series provides continuous measurements of the atmosphere and surface over the Western Hemisphere. The GOES satellites circle the Earth in a geosynchronous orbit, which means they orbit the equatorial plane of the Earth at a speed matching the Earth's rotation. This orbit allows them to hover continuously over one position on the surface of the Earth. The geosynchronous plane is about 35,800 km (22,300 miles) above the Earth, high enough to allow the satellites a full-disc view of the Earth. The GOES-East satellite is positioned over the equator at 75 degrees West longitude, and the GOES-West satellite is positioned at 135 degrees West longitude. The GOES Imager is a five-channel (one visible, four infrared) imaging radiometer designed to sense radiant and solar reflected energy from sampled areas of the earth. GOES data are used by researchers for understanding interactions between land, ocean, atmosphere, and climate. GOES Variable (GVAR) format is the data transmission format used to broadcast environmental data measured by the independent GOES Imager and Sounder instruments, beginning with GOES-8 launched in 1994. Data distribution formats available to users are raw, AREA, NetCDF, GIF, and JPEG.

This data set covers approximately 547 square miles. Delivery 1 of the survey area was collected on July 18th, 19th and 20th of 2009. The LiDAR survey utilized both a Leica ALS60 and a Leica ALS50-II sensor in a Cessna Caravan 208B. All areas were surveyed with an opposing flight line side-lap of 50% (=100% overlap) to reduce laser shadowing and increase surface laser painting. The Leica laser systems allow up to four range measurements (returns) per pulse, and all discernible laser returns were processed for the output dataset. This LiDAR survey achieved a nominal point spacing of 8.82 points per square meter.

The depwmas data is a simplified version of the ARC/INFO dephuc14 data. The dephuc14 is NJDEP's version of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) hydrologic-unit-code basins that delineates the extent of the DEP watershed management regions and areas to be used for the statewide watershed initiative. Both the depwmas and dephuc14 data comprise the Watershed Base Maps for New Jersey. Also, both were created from the USGS HUC14 by replacing the state boundary included with the USGS version with the DEP state and county border data(stco). The data was produced to address data-processing problems arising from combining the USGS huc14 with NJDEP GISdata due to the use of conflicting state boundaries.

This file is based on the OCS Marine Survey Group Official Protraction Diagram (OPD). Each offshore area is defined by an API Number corresponding to those in the API Bulletin Number D12A. OPDs are numbered using the United Nations International Map of the World Numbering System, and are generally named for land or hydrographic features contained within the limits of the diagram. This data set contains Official Protraction Diagram (OPD) outlines in ESRI Arc/Info export and Arc/View shape file formats for the BOEM Gulf of Mexico Region. The use of OPDs makes it easier to refer to individual blocks within a region or planning area. These OPD diagrams were clipped along the Submerged Lands Act (SLA) boundary and along lines contained in the Continental Shelf Boundaries (CSB) GIS data files to show only those blocks or portions thereof within federal jurisdiction. Because GIS projection and topology functions can change or generalize coordinates, these GIS files are NOT an OFFICIAL record for the exact OPD boundaries. Only the paper OPD or a digital image of them serves as OFFICIAL records.Official Protraction Diagrams and other cadastre information the BOEM produces are generated in accordance with 30 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 556.8 Subpart A, (formerly Part 256.8 Subpart A (2010)) to support Federal land ownership and mineral resource management. Additional details are available from: http://www.boem.gov/uploadedFiles/BOEM/Oil_and_Gas_Energy_Program/Mapping_and_Data/99-0006.pdfBecause GIS projection and topology functions can change or generalize coordinates, and because shapefiles cannot represent true arcs, these GIS files are considered to be approximate and are NOT an OFFICIAL record for the exact block coordinates or areas. The Official Protraction Diagrams (OPDs) and Supplemental Official Block Diagrams (SOBDs) serve as the legal definition for BOEM offshore boundary coordinates and area descriptions. Contains the protraction polygons clipped on the fedstate (SLA-Boundary) as of March 15, 2013. Used ArcCatalog to create shape files. Shape files put at \\imsnolna04\le\shared\GISPublicInfo.
