Space Weather Analysis and Forecast System (SWAFS)

Abstract

SWAFS is designed to enhance and sustain a single integrated space weather software baseline operating in a net-centric environment at all security levels within the 557th Weather Wing enterprise architecture. SWAFS was declared FOC in FY15 and then modified to focus on the Global Assimilation of Ionospheric Measurements(GAIM)Full Physics model, to satisfy future requirements, including the development of other new models and science algorithms that do not currently exist and processing space weather data that is not currently available. Funding also provides for program office and related support activities. Capabilities provided: Return to service; corrective, adaptive, and capability improvement maintenance for the operational software baseline SWAFS accepts space weather data and uses models and/or algorithms to create and disseminate specified space weather analysis and forecast products Users: COCOMs, MAJCOMs, SPADOC, NRO, Navy & Army
