Description:The Aerospace Corporation Civil Systems Group (CSG) Civil Spectrum Management branch was requested by the GOES-R (Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite – R Series) Systems Program Office, to undertake the task of performing a socioeconomic benefits study of the GOES-R Series system using the previous system, GOES N-O-P, as the counter factual. Under this task, an Aerospace Corporation team (consisting of an engineer, a meteorologist, and an economist) was to determine the socioeconomic public and private benefits of the GOES-R Series system in both unquantifiable and quantifiable terms for a limited number of National Weather Service (NWS) products whose percentage of contributions from GOES-R data could be readily determined. In the first phase of this study, the team selected an NWS forecast product area as a Pathfinder for which there was significant monetary and human value from the GOES-R data contribution. The primary purpose of this Pathfinder phase was to identify and demonstrate a credible process and methodology for determining additional GOES-R benefit values.
