Abstract:
NOAA's Geostationary Extended Observations (GeoXO) satellite system will provide advanced hyperspectral resolution infrared observations. The first GeoXO Sounder (GXS) will fly in the mid-2030s and provide an unprecedented level of information. The plans are for the GXS to be located at a longitude over the center of the U.S. The GXS will be as much of an improvement over the legacy Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) broad-spectral resolution sounder as the Advanced Baseline Imager (ABI) was to the legacy imager. The GXS will be the U.S. contribution to the global ring of geostationary advanced infrared sounders. The GXS sensor will provide unique information about the vertical structure of moisture, winds, and temperature to support both Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) and nowcasting applications.
