IMAGES: 2013 NOAA Satellite Conference

The 2013 NOAA Satellite Conference for Direct Readout, GOES/POES, and GOES-R/JPSS Users was hosted by NOAA and was held at the NOAA Center for Weather and Climate Prediction (NCWCP) in College Park, Maryland, on April 8-12, 2013.

The conference brought together users and providers of polar-orbiting and geostationary satellite data, products and applications from the public, private, and academic perspectives and provided a venue and opportunity for greater collaboration between and among environmental satellite users in the Western Hemisphere. This conference is particularly important to prepare users for the GOES-R and JPSS era. More than 600 people attended the conference, taking in more than 175 posters, 70+ presentations, 25 exhibits and panels, tours, user feedback sessions and additional workshops.
