GBOS Real Time Products PIs Can Provide:

1 hr wind profiles from 915 MHz profiler (ascii) t-z sections of vertical beam moments from 915 MHz profiler (gif files) t-z sections of ceilometer return power (gif) profiles of T water vapor to 10 km from profiling radiometer 2 min time resolution (ascii) precipitable water and integrated cloud water 2 min (ascii). All of the above will be uploaded via satellite comm. It appears that the MIPS may also have a GLASS so we can also relay soundings to St. Louis via satellite uplink. Will also have surface data. (Knupp)

GBOS Essential Products:

analyses and model forecasts of shear and CAPE; current radar satellite surface and profiler data; displays of current NWS warnings (tornado severe storm flood); ability to input a lat-lon location and plot it on the radar display (Dowell)

Research Data PIs Will Provide:

We will be responsible for processes the microphysics data from the NOAA P-3 (Rauber)
mobile mesonet observations (Dowell)
NOAA P-3 aircraft flight level data selected LF radar composites selected TA imagery and dual-Doppler wind analyses (Jorgensen)
For selected cases assimilation of observations (mostly sounding wind profile and surface network) with Ensemble Kalman Filter based on WRF will be performed and the final outcome of the analysis and forecast will be shared to others who are interested in. (Zhang)
digitized damage survey data (Trapp)
All MIPS products + possible GLASS. (Knupp)
Damage Surveys - An archive of damage survey maps and digital photos of surface damage for all BAMEX events (Atkins)
We should be able to provide 1 minute AWOS data from Iowa along with several other types of experimental surface data from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet. (Gallus)
