McMurdo Sound MetSat Station: Upgrade, Maintenance, and ARC

去年，斯克里普斯海洋研究所与海洋空间公司合作，在南极洲和斯克里普斯园区安装和维护一个气象卫星图像接收和显示系统。该系统已成功安装，并已完全运行。该系统用于两个目的，1)为飞行预报提供南极大陆唯一的实时图像，2)记录图像以及其他嵌入的大气数据集，供科学界回放和分析。这项提议旨在升级麦克默多的计算机系统，以减少处理时间，在南极洲建立一个科学工作站，并继续操作和维护这些系统，包括为对这些数据集感兴趣的调查人员进行数据存档和展示。

During the last year Scripps Institution of Oceanography has been involved with SeaSpace, Inc. to install and maintain a weather satellite image receive and display system in Antarctica and at the Scripps campus. The system was successfully installed and is fully operational. The system serves two purposes, 1) provides the only real.time imagery of the Antarctic continent for flight forecasting and 2) records the imagery along with other embedded atmospheric data sets for play back and analysis by the science community. This proposal seeks to upgrade the computer systems in McMurdo to reduce processing time, set up a science work station in Antarctica and to continue operations and maintenance of the systems including data archive and display for investigators interested in these data sets.
