Potential Responsibilities Overview

• LASP has defined 4 different types of archive based on product type, timeliness requirements and customer base Space weather archive handles near real-time products

available via the web (~100 MB/day) Level 0 archive handles the L0A data (~22 GB/day) and is

considered the disaster recovery archive; data would only be available to LASP

Private Data archive handles upper level products (L0B + L1; ~22 GB/day), data would only be available to LASP

Public Data archive handles upper level products (~600 MB/day) that are publicly available; this includes search, order and distribution of these products

• NSIDC has been asked to estimate costs for providing any/all of these services
