Topic: New Sensor Processing System (SPS) software release

Date/Time Issued: April 15, 2014 1450 UTC

Product(s) or Data Impacted: GOES-15 (GOES-West) Sounder data

Date/Time of Initial Impact: April 21, 2014 2045 UTC

Date/Time of Expected End: Permanent change

Length of Outage:  Permanent change

Details/Specifics of Change: On April 21, 2014, a new Sensor Processing
System (SPS) software version (10.4.1) will be released on for GOES-15
(GOES-West). The new SPS release 10.4.1 replaces version 10.2 and
corrects
GOES-15 (GOES-West) Sounder shortwave channel (15) striping.

This problem was initially observed during GOES-15 (GOES-West)
Post-Launch
Testing (PLT) and was discovered to be due to detector-to-detector and
line-to-line (East to West vs. West to East) differences. The
correction
algorithm corrects both problems in real-time (line by line).
