By the Numbers
• FY13: Continuing Resolution passed – until 27 March– Pres Bud: NOAA IOOS: 6.533M; Regional IOOS: 29,520M
• 14,520 RCOOS; 5M HF Radar; 10M sensor innovation– Senate Mark: NOAA IOOS: 6.533M; Regional IOOS 31,055M
• Committee's recommendation provides no less than $26,055,000 for regional partnerships and $5,000,000 for external funding to test and advance sensor technology development.
– House Mark: NOAA IOOS: 4.9M; Regional IOOS; 26,568M• IOOS … shall ensure that sufficient resources are allocated for verification and
validation of existing equipment.– BUT - Potential Sequestration – 8.2% for NOAA
• FY14: NOAA budget is at OMB

SOS Reference Implementation
• With common data access services we can begin to share applications and products.
• Recent and near term efforts will lower the barrier of entry for every region deploying SOS services
• All RAs committed to using one of two open source SOS implementations

Global HF Radar Network
• Under the Group Earth Observations (GEO)– 88 Member governments and the European Commission, working with 61 Participating
Organizations focused on the importance of Earth Observations to Societal Benefits
• Component under 2 Tasks in the GEO workplan 2012-2015– IIN-01 Earth Observing Systems– SB-01 Oceans and Society: Blue Planet
• Kicked off at Oceanology International March and 1st Ocean Radar Conference for Asia
• Goals:– Transform individual HF Radar networks into a global system where we can
provide high quality HF Radar for a range of used. – Development of easy to use standard products– Assimilate HF Radar data into models– Development of easy to use standard products 10
