本文探讨了卫星气象数据收集正在从政府任务转变为越来越多地由私营部门执行的有争议的过程。作为这一有争议的转变的说明,它解决了2006年至2017年期间在美国国家海洋和大气管理局、国会、私营公司、学术气象和国际观察员之间就使用全球导航卫星系统从无线电掩星获得的数据商业化提出的辩论。它特别关注这些参与者的论点、话语、观点和观点。通过关注一个有争议的数据分发政策和实践的特定地点,本案例研究强调了传统气象规范与推动私营部门在数据共享方面的商业需求之间的价值观冲突。面对日益商业化的气象卫星,本文的主要兴趣涉及改变当前数据收集、使用和共享模式的更广泛问题。(C) 2018 Elsevier Ltd.版权所有。
This article examines the contested process through which satellite weather data collection is being transformed from a governmental mission to one increasingly carried out by the private sector. As illustration of this controversial transformation, it addresses the debates raised in the United States between some members of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the Congress, private firms, academic meteorology and international observers between 2006 and 2017 regarding the commercialisation of data obtained from radio occultations using the Global Navigation Satellite System. It looks, in particular, at the arguments, discourses, viewpoints and perspectives of these involved actors. By focusing on one particular site of controversy policies and practices of data distribution this case study emphasises a clash of values between conventional norms of meteorology and commercial imperatives driving the private sector with respects to data sharing. The main interest of this article pertains to the broader issue of changing the current model for data gathering, using and sharing in the face of growing commercialisation of weather satellites.
