Parsons is delivering data from NOAA-15, NOAA-18, and NOAA-19 to NESDIS to support NOAA’s numerical weather prediction and climate models and environmental monitoring.
NOAA pursued a Ground System as a Service (GSaaS) capability to continue operating NOAA-15, NOAA-18, and NOAA-19 well into the future.
Parsons added a team of private-sector companies to transition operational control of NOAA-15, NOAA-18, and NOAA-19 and to develop a new commercial cloud-based ground system that will remain active until September 2025.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration selected a Parsons Corporation–led team to provide engineering services, information technology functionality, and flight operations support to assume on-orbit operations for the Polar Operational Environmental Satellites NOAA-15, NOAA-18, and NOAA-19.
In April, NOAA sought information from contractors interested in providing engineering and information-technology services and handling flight operations for polar-orbiting satellites NOAA-15, NOAA-18, and NOAA-19.
