Analytical system
On basis of analysis algorithmswe developed, we code programs (it means to describe programs) and we call the programs loaded on computerAnalysis systems.The analysis systems vary from huge systems consisting of dozens of series CPUs to small and middle systems consisting of a few CPUs. Design considerably depend on purpose and analysis capability (speed and efficiency). For example, systems for weather forecast need the highest priority on fault-tolerant operation. On the other hand, systems for testing new analysis algorithms need just modification easily for research development of inventions.
Operation in this research
Processing parallelization, file system construction, process automatization, design of hard ware construction, and design of soft ware and development are our researches.
1, Satellite data receiving and making initial data(transformation to fixed format)
2, Initial data at the second process (format transformation in order to use data easily)
3, Cloud flag process(difference between cloud area and sunny area)
4, Download and initial process of ancillary data (objective analysis meteorological data by the Meteorological Agency)
5, Analysis process of satellite data (transformation from radiance to physical parameters) and statistical process
6, Visualization of analysis process results (superposition on map)
7, To open “visualization file” to the public in Web
