Space Weather Analysis and Forecast System (SWAFS)
Abstract
SWAFS is a software suite of 47 models/applications to Ingest, process, and store space environmental data, run space environmental models to specify and forecast the near-Earth environment, and run space effects characterization applications. SWAFS products support various operations including 1. Spacecraft tracking and health 2. Early Warning & Theater Warning Radar support 3. GPS & SATCOM user support 4. Intel Community support and 5. High Altitude & Space Flight support. The next development efforts include modernizing the SWAFS code and research and implementation of the Radiation Exposure model (RADEX) and the Energetic Charged Particle Hazard Assessment model (ECP HAS) that address space environment irregularities impacting satellite comm & anomaly assessments, precision navigation and timing, and early warning radar interference. This effort was previously called SWAFS-RadEX.
