NOTICE that there is also a NOAA conference at Miami and I bet there
will be
SDR chatter.
I have reserved tickets…

"
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administrations (NOAA) National
Environmental Satellite, Data and Information Service (NESDIS), Office
of
Satellite Products and Operations (OSPO) and the International and
Interagency Affairs Office (IIA) have started organizing the next
Satellite
Direct Readout (SDRO) Conference, to be held April 4-8, 2011 in Miami,
Florida. This will be a follow up to the very successful Direct Readout
Conference held in 2008. As with the 2008 conference, the main focus
will
be on current GOES and POES data access, distribution, and preparing
users
for the upcoming changes to the NOAA satellite programs. We will
present
users with information on the following services:
a… Automated Picture Transmission (APT)
b… High Rate Picture transmission (HRPT)
c… GOES VARible data (GVAR)
d… Argos Data Collection System (DCS)
e… GOES Data Collection System (DCS)
f… Low Rate Information Transmission (LRIT)
g… Emergency Managers Weather and Information Network (EMWIN)
h… GEONETCast Americas
i… other NOAA systems
The DRO educates users on our future direct readout and re-broadcast
services:
a… GOES-Re-Broadcast (GRB)
b… High Rate Information Transmission (HRIT)/EMWIN
c… Narrow-band GOES DCS
d… High Rate Data (HRD)
e… etc.
This will assure that organizations using our data or services will not
be
left unaware of upcoming technology enhancements.
The purpose of this Conference is to continue discussions initiated
during
the 2008 Satellite Direct Readout Conference for the Americas and to
expand
the scope to include all users worldwide. This year’s Conference theme
is:
Real-time Access for Real-time Applications. The goal is to meet with
users who receive data directly from NOAA’s environmental satellites and
provide a forum to help them prepare for upcoming changes as NOAA
transitions into new technologies for direct readout and broadcast
services.
This years conference is very important considering the restructuring of
the National Polar-orbiting Environmental Satellite System (NPOESS)
program
to create the Joint Polar-orbiting Satellite System (JPSS) as the
follow-on
civilian polar program. There will be new information on the GOES-R
ground
system development and their direct readout services. Also, we plan to
provide an update on the NTIA proposal for the re-allocation of the
1675-1710 MHz frequency band. As you are aware, this frequency is the
health and safety band that supports all environmental monitoring,
transmission of global observations and provides critical information to
decision makers to produce forecasts and warnings.
The conference format will consist of four general themes organized
around;
International Cooperation, Polar Systems, Geostationary Systems, and the
Applications/Training. Facilitated discussion sessions will also be
used to
address specific topics. The Conference web site is:
http://directreadout.noaa.gov/miami11/. Simultaneous Spanish and
English
translation will be provided at the conference.
Please mark your calendars for this important date. Your support for
this
conference would add to a straightforward transition into the new
generation
of environmental satellite direct readout data. Your cooperation will
be
greatly appreciated.

Subject: Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] GNU Radio Conference
I think it’s a great idea to have a GNU Radio conference and I’ll do
my best to be there. Personally, I also prefer an agenda with a good
mixture of presentations and active sessions
(tutorial/workshop/hacking), like the one proposed by Tom.
September is fine and both weekdays and weekend are good.

to try to figure it out. We can either hold the conference during the
attend would also help me determine what size we need to account for.
