TPIO Mission: Providing comprehensive assessments for integrations, optimization, and sustainment of NOAA’s observing systems and data management architectures.Who do we support?

NOAA Leadership NOAA Councils  NOAA Line Offices – Service Portfolio Managers NOAA Line and Staff Office – Observing System Program Managers

Ongoing support includes: The Earth Observation Assessment with the Office of Science and Technology Policy 

(OSTP) The Future Weather Satellite Architecture with the National Satellite and Information 

Service (NESDIS)  The Fleet Force Recapitalization Architecture with the Office of Marine and Aviation 

Operations (OMAO) Many more…

User Requirements

Documented, validated user needs of environmental parameters

Required to produce specific products and services 

Captured independently from observing technologies

Important so that they can be assessed against current or expected observing capabilities

Example:The National Weather Service (NWS) wanted 

to know: 

1. What user requirements can be satisfied by the proposed follow‐on Rawinsondecapability? 

2. What is the impact of the current Rawinsonde system?

System is used directly by 260 different products and services across NOAA

System ranks in the top 10 (out of over 700) data sources for NOAA

System ranks in the top 5 data sources for NOAA’s Weather Ready Nation Goal

What is the impact of the current Rawinsonde system?

Other Types of Questions What capabilities do future observing systems need to satisfy 

more requirements?

Who uses my product and services and how impactful are my products to NOAA, NOAA’s goals, mission service areas, etc.?

Where do observing systems fall in a cost vs. benefit analysis?

What are the relative impacts of Earth observing systems on NOAA, NOAA’s goals, mission service areas, etc.?

What is the impact of losing an Earth observing system on NOAA’s ability to meet a requirement?
