NASA and NOAA to Host Joint Satellite Data Session at 2027 AMS Annual Meeting
NASA's Commercial Satellite Data Acquisition (CSDA) program and NOAA's National Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service (NESDIS) Commercial Data Program (CDP) will co-host a joint session. Titled "Advancing Weather and Environmental Science Through NASA and NOAA Commercial Satellite Data Programs," the session is part of the 23rd Symposium on Operational Environmental Satellite Systems. This event will occur during the 2027 American Meteorological Society (AMS) Annual Meeting from January 10-14 in Denver, Colorado. Abstracts are currently being accepted for submission.
A joint session hosted by NASA's Commercial Satellite Data Acquisition (CSDA) program and NOAA's National Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service (NESDIS) Commercial Data Program (CDP) is scheduled for the 23rd Symposium on Operational Environmental Satellite Systems.
The session, titled "Advancing Weather and Environmental Science Through NASA and NOAA Commercial Satellite Data Programs," will be held from January 10-14, 2027, in Denver, Colorado, as part of the American Meteorological Society (AMS) Annual Meeting.
The event aims to explore the increasing capabilities of commercial Earth observation providers, which are creating new opportunities for advancements in weather research, operational forecasting, and environmental science applications.
NASA's CSDA program and NESDIS's CDP collaborate to expand federal access to commercial satellite data and integrate its use into research and operational applications. The CSDA program supports the scientific community by evaluating and acquiring various commercial datasets, including optical, Synthetic Aperture Radar, Global Navigation Satellite System Radio Occultation and Reflectometry, methane, precipitation, and Digital Elevation/Terrain Models. These datasets are used for modeling, hazard monitoring, climate studies, and applied research.
Similarly, the CDP operationalizes commercial space-based environmental data, demonstrating impacts from assimilated observations in weather forecasting and space weather applications. It also conducts pilot projects and facilitates the transition of piloted data into operational use.
Together, the CSDA and CDP programs aim to strengthen the nation's weather enterprise by fostering innovative research, addressing observational gaps, and integrating commercial data into real-world forecasting and decision support applications.
Abstracts for the session are currently being accepted. Interested parties can visit the symposium’s website for submission details and additional information about the abstract submission process.
