  • Description:
    This report summarizes the activities and results from the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite R-Series (GOES-R) and Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS) Proving Ground demonstration at the 2019 Spring Experiment, which took place at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Hazardous Weather Testbed (HWT) in Norman, OK from 22 April to 7 June 2019. The Satellite Proving Ground activities were focused in the Experimental Warning Program (EWP). A total of 30 National Weather Service (NWS) forecasters representing five NWS regions, 2 Department of Defense (DOD) United States Air Force forecasters, and an additional three broadcast meteorologists participated in the EWP experiment. They evaluated six major baseline, future capability, and experimental GOES-R and JPSS products (Table 1) in the real-time simulated short-term forecast and warning environment of the EWP using the second generation Advanced Weather Interactive Processing System (AWIPS-II). Additionally, this year in the EWP the Satellite Proving Ground Experiment was combined with an experiment by the Radar Operations Center (ROC) and NSSL evaluating several new updates and experimental products utilizing radar data. This allowed both experiments to provide more forecasters and more weeks to evaluate their products and provide robust feedback on the development of these experimental products for use in NWS operations.
