OVERVIEW
ASSETS
• Internet Service Providers (ISP) like AT&T are the back bone of data gathering and transmission, from and to all assets and required servers.
• Observational assets provide historical data to be used as input and model validation.• Models and forecasts include but are not limited to: wind, waves and currents. Operational models have resources
priority over experimental versions. Experimental models run in sandbox environments.

To maintain business continuity, both of CariCOOS installations have industrial grade Power Generator and Temperature Control.

CariCOOS dual High Performance Computing (HPC) facilities at Isla Magueyes and UPRM perform the bulk of our Data Management and Communications (DMAC) activities and computationally intensive modeling. The Weather Research Forecast (WRF), ocean circulation model ROMS, Simulating WAves Nearshore (SWAN), ADCIRC-SWAN coastal inundation, Bouss2D, and many others, are all run in-house. SWAN, ROMS and WRF are executed in operational mode while others are used in a process-oriented fashion. The Navy’s AMSEAS model output is also widely utilized. Our observational and modeling data is a reinterpretable representation of information in a formalized manner suitable for communication, interpretation, and processing. For this purpose CariCOOS divides its products in two sections, observational assets and modeling assets, which are available for any users, scientific and leisure alike.
