Transcript by Federal News Service Washington, D.C. JOHN PODESTA: Good morning, everyone. I’m John Podesta. I’m the president of the Center for American Progress Action Fund. I want to thank you for joining us here today to remember and to reflect on the tragedy that occurred in Oklahoma City nearly 15 years ago. There are days that punctuate all our memories, collectively and as a country, and April 19, 1995 is most certainly one of them. So despite the somberness of this occasion, I’m honored to co-host this important event today and I’m grateful to those who were affected for taking the time to share their experiences, as we look both backwards to remember what happened and forward to draw lessons. We can now see more clearly from today’s vantage point.

    Analysis of Satellite Radio Occultation Architecture and its Stakeholders I. Josue Tapia-Tamayo1 and Paul T. Grogan2 Stevens Institute of Technology, Hoboken, NJ 07030, USA Global Navigation Satellite System Radio Occultation (GNSS-RO) is a technique that relies on the change of a signal transmitted from a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) as it passes through the planet’s atmosphere. This technique is not only suitable to study weather forecasting or climate change, but also offers a low-cost application. This report aims to characterize and parametrize the system architecture of commercial companies pursuing the Commercial Weather Data Pilot (CWDP) contract by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). The approach of the paper will start by explaining the Radio Occultation technique and its potential application to Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP). The paper then identifies the main stakeholders of radio occultation and NWP, and their needs. Some key functional requirements are pinpointed, and the challenges that some of these architectures must overcome is discussed. Introduction The increase of severe weather in the last decade has led to the need for improvement of U.S. weather forecasting. Severe weather such as hurricanes and flooding causes great economic damage to cities. According to National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the cost of economic damage caused by hurricanes was $161 billion for Katrina in 2005, $71 billion for Sandy in 2012, $125 billion for Harvey in 2017, $90 billion for Maria in 2017, and $50 billion for Irma in 2017. The overall cost of hurricanes in the U.S. reached $515.4 billion in insured property losses from 1986 to 2015.
