Development of new products
We work with researchers from a number of institutes to ensure NEODAAS products reflect the state of the art and fulfil current and future needs of the community. NEODAAS staff are frequently involved in other research projects at Plymouth Marine Laboratory covering a range of topics. Being able to take new products, incorporate into operational processing and offer to the wider community is a key function of NEODAAS.
Below is a list of recently completed, ongoing and planned development for NEODAAS. If you have any comments or requests for NEODAAS development or would like to help with testing please
get in touch.

Ongoing developments
The following is a list of some of the development which is currently ongoing:
- Web based portal for visualisation of data.
Expected to go live end of January 2020
The portal was developed at PML and has been used for a number of products. An instance with NEODAAS data will provide a way for researchers to view and perform simple analysis of data NEODAAS routinely produce from within a web browser.
- Routine processing for NOAA-20 VIIRS
Expected completion February 2020
We currently process data from the VIIRS sensor carried onboard the Suomi satellite, being able to process data from the VIIRS sensor recently launched on NOAA-20 will mean we are able to achieve much greater coverage. For OLCI we also process data from two satellites, Sentinel 3a and Sentinel 3b.
- Processing chain for Sentinel 3 SLSTR Sea Surface Temperature
Expected completion February 2020
The main sensor currently used by NEODAAS for SST is AVHRR, being able to process another sensor will provide additional options for NRT support.
- Geostationary data
Expected completion March 2020
To fill in some of the geostationary capability which was previously being provided to NEODAAS as part of the Dundee Satellite Receiving Station, NEODAAS are developing procedures to process geostationary data received from the EUMETCast receiver at PML.
