2004 Satellite Direct Readout Conference: A Decade in Transition
Miami, Florida – December 6-10, 2004
Welcome to the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
(NOAA) 2004 Satellite Direct Readout Conference web site. NOAA hosted
this year's conference on December 6-10, 2004 at the
Hilton
Miami Airport Hotel* in
Miami, Florida. Approximately 200 administrators, mangers and scientists
from 29 countries participated in the forum. Participants
contact list.
The purpose of the Conference was to continue discussions initiated
during the 2002 Satellite Direct
Readout Conference
for the Americas and to expand the scope to include all users world
wide. This year's Conference theme was: A Decade in Transition. The
goal was to meet with users who receive
data directly from NOAA's environmental satellites and provide a forum
to help them prepare for upcoming changes as NOAA transitions into
new technologies for direct
broadcasts.
We are grateful for the sponsors of this conference who include: the NOAA Satellite and
Information Service's Office of Systems Development, Integrated Program Office and the
Office of Satellite Data Processing and Distribution as well as the NOAA National Weather
Service, and to the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Direct Readout
Lab at the Goddard Space Flight Center.
This Conference gave users the opportunity to provide
feedback on upcoming satellite changes, engage in two-way communication
among NOAA/NASA and the user community, as well as
inform users of the innovative new changes in direct readout technologies
coming within the next decade.
