Description:"Beginning in late 1973 and continuing into 1976, NASA, in collaboration with NOAA, conducted a series of Data Systems Tests (DST), which were intended to be a precursor to U.S. participation in FGGE - The Global Weather Experiment. These tests proved to be extremely useful in evaluating the suitability of the projected FGGE observing systems, the data processing and distribution facilities, as well as our ability to use the resultant data in analysis and forecast models. The final two tests of the DST series produced the most complete sets of global meteorological data ever assembled"--Introduction.
