User Requirements Summary for Sensor Web:

-user categories: value added providers, agencies, public (apps)

-users want products to be accessible, map based products, 

-KML raster overlays, vector polygons

-hidden services, automated servers, sub/pub services

-examples.....

-sensor web has 86 algorithms running for different disaster types

Dave Jones talk (StormCenter):

Real-time cloud-based gesopatial data sharing and collaboration

-Storm Center Collaboration Technology Evolution

-AWIPS data, GOES-R grants, and others

-IDSS NWS work, 

-NASA A.18 Risk Reduction Effort

-System connects Fed,State,local decision makers

-Volcanic ash example,Joint US-Environment Canada, and others
