Description

The Sonalysts Team proposes the research, identification, and Proof-of-Concept demonstration of an architecture solution to the Fleet Numeric Meteorological and Oceanographic (METOC) Center (FNMOC) to include a software suite of tools for the Navy Advanced Climate Analysis and Forecast (ACAF) System. This approach will allow end users and FNMOC analysts to manipulate the latest climate, meteorological, and oceanographic gridded data to generate derived decision support products through ACAF web services by the innovative use of a domain-specific scripting language. This ACAF gridded domain-specific language will allow access to FNMOC's programming, utility, and 3rd party libraries and applications at runtime, which will eliminate external development costs and permit the creation of derived product libraries for researchers and end users. The proposed architecture solution will provide an engineering approach to obtain, record, archive, and generate climate and METOC gridded data accessible to ACAF users and analysts. The system will be capable to auto-generate a standard set of products, as well as allow users to generate ad hoc non-standard derived products through web services. The resulting derived decision support products will be available in a number of user selectable formats for visualization and integration into Command and Control and Geographic Information Systems (GISs).
