NEONS Environmental Database--Recent Developments

Abstract

The Naval Environmental Operational Nowcasting System (NEONS) is being developed at the Naval Oceanographic and Atmospheric Research Laboratory (NOARL) to support research into new techniques for analysis and interpretation of environmental data. A primary objective of the workstation system is to facilitate the virtual sensor concept, whereby data from a variety of sources are integrated and blended to extract information about the environment not possible using any single sensor. When these virtual sensor techniques are developed, they will be implemented on the Naval Tactical Environment Support System (TESS(3)). One component of NEONS is an environmental database which provides storage, management, and access to a large variety of oceanographic and atmospheric data. An introduction to NEONS and its database has been presented. This note describes further developments in the database component of NEONS within the past 12 months.
