Geographic Information System technology is applied to perform Data Quality Monitoring functions for the National
Polar-Orbiting Environmental Satellite System (NPOESS) and NPOESS Preparatory Project (NPP) Ground Processing Systems. A
GIS-based design provides broad capabilities for automated data quality checks and data quality notifications on sensor data
products within the first 24 hours of satellite data production. This design supports remote sensor and ancillary data
ingest and management, with flexible data display, processing and interactive editing in a spatial/relational environment,
and can be quickly adapted to changes in satellite remote sensor operations. Time is critical in an operational environment,
so a "Sensor Space" projection is used to minimize coordinate transformations and increase processing performance. The Data
Quality Monitoring capability provides a quick look at both data and analysis products, and can support System Test by
filtering and preprocessing the NPOESS/NPP products for further off-line Calibration and Validation analysis. An interface
to Interactive Data Language (IDL) is included to support heritage IDL algorithms and exploit the combined capabilities for
image (IDL) and vector (GIS) processing.
