SCOPE-CM• Aim: To address the requirements of GCOS in a cost-effective,

coordinated manner, capitalizing on existing expertise and infrastructures• Objective: Continuous and sustained provision of high-quality

Essential Climate Variables satellite products (Climate Data Records) on a global scale

• Structure: The SCOPE-CM Network is:» Based on activities of existing initiatives (GOS, GCOS and GSICS)» Built upon existing operational infrastructures» Serve users and other organizations (WMO Regional Climate Centres RCCs,

National Weather Services NMHSs)

SCOPE-CM Phases

• establish initial network and structure

• agree on principles and standards

• pilot projects on selected subjects

• Assess current capabilities

• establish feedback mechanisms

2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014

Phase I

• establish structures for sustainable generation of FCDRs and TCDRs

•generate first SCOPE-CM products

• increase coverage of products in terms of ECVs, time and spatial dimension

•foster extension of the network

• full deployment of the sustained system of product generation

• product review and quality control

• continuous product improvement

Phase II Phase III

Maturity Matrix Identifies Milestones and Research-to-Operations Transition Points

Page 18: Intro to SCOPE-CM 4 th  WCRP Observations and Assimilation Panel (WOAP) Meeting

CDR Evolution Requires Research & Operational Agency Collaboration At Every Step

• Need to capture essential elements of CDR generation experience from last 20 years– Physical Understanding of

Measurement Process

– Measurement of Key Instrument Characteristics

– Public Accessibility of Data Processing

– Rigorous Validation

– Long-term Preservation

Page 19: Intro to SCOPE-CM 4 th  WCRP Observations and Assimilation Panel (WOAP) Meeting

National and International Progress on Climate Services Requires Improved Collaboration and Framework for Research/Operations Transitions

• Differing community views of data maturity and science data stewardship need to reflect wide diversity– Vocabulary– Experience– Background

• Need understandable approach

• Try adopting ‘maturity model’ from software engineering

Different Perspectives!

Page 21: Intro to SCOPE-CM 4 th  WCRP Observations and Assimilation Panel (WOAP) Meeting

The Way Forward • Need more involvement from research agencies and/or those working on ECVs

• Broaden testing of maturity model/matrix

• Test concepts with oceanic and terrestrial ECVs

• Continue to advance dialogue between operational and research communities
