Plans for ESTO Interim
Review
AIST-QRS-06-0026
Title: The Detection and Tracking of Satellite
Image Features Associated with Extreme
Physical Events for Sensor Web Targeting
Observing
Required Elements
• Primary Findings, Technology Development Results and
Technical Status
– Results of tests and proof-of-concept demonstrations
• Description of work planned for remainder of project
– Critical issues
• Cost and Schedule status
– Schedule slippage/acceleration
– Schedule milestone chart for major tasks
– Cost data sheet
• List total costs committed, obligated and costed
– Graphical representation of projected and actual project
expenditures
Optional Elements
• Background info to orient reviewers
• Photos, illustrations, diagrams pertaining
to research
• How we fit with other NASA work
• Dependencies and how we manage them
• NOAA cooperation and follow-on support
• Journal/conference publications and
presentations
Logistics
• 1.5 hour (90 min) review implies ~30 slides
• Slides must be uploaded 2 days before
review (June 1st or latest by 4th )
• Images must be reduced to ~100dpi for
display, then compressed to jpeg for
upload
• Will need to record actions from the review
in order to update slides and upload to
Interim Report in e-Books

Cost and Schedule Status
• Milestone slippage:
– Overall WCS Phase I data flow was delayed one
month
• To resolve issues with GOES data sources, projection and
grid resolution
• To decide content and form of GOES metadata input to WCS
• Updated milestone schedule
• Cost data sheet
– Commitments to GMU, UofWisc, and NSSL
• Graph of projected and actual costs
– total by month
