Details/Specifics of Change:

The NOAA/NESDIS will make the Infrared Atmospheric Sounding Interferometer (IASI) level-1C radiances
from Metop-1 data products operationally available to its users from the IASI Products Processing System
(IPPS), at the Environmental Satellite Processing Center (ESPC). The current IASI processing system Phase-I
will be generating and distributing thinned radiances in BUFR format which were produced for a set of selected
channels or combination of channels, using the level 1C data ingested from EUMETSAT. The radiances are processed
to derive Principal Component Analysis (PCA), reconstruction, and global gridding.
These products will be made available from the ESPC Data Distribution System (DDS) starting on July 31, 2013.
