Fernandez, Steven — Department of Commerce SBIR Phase II: 8.5.1

Description

The wide spread use of NOAA developed products including future climate scenarios, weather products, and infrastructure impacts are not used as widely by public decision makers or the public as possible because it is difficult to explore the data without expensive help manipulating the data or expressing their queries. The technical objective is to establish a prototype service and platform for web standards and 1) deliver products to workstations, mobile applications and tablets, 2) receive queries from users and 3) permit decision-makers to structure new future scenarios inexpensively viewed on workstations, mobile applications, and tablets by the hazard community. A prototype portal will be the first open web streaming services testbed to allow the users to structure their look ahead models and apply local knowledge; 2) a common spatial climate models. Integration of the models provides a framework for existing high-resolution climate modeling output, infrastructure model data and population movements in a common reference grid
