Definition

  • The Office of Systems Development (OSD) manages NOAA's operational geostationary and polar-orbiting environmental satellite programs. Our objective is to provide the spacecraft, launch services, and ground systems necessary to maintain the uninterrupted flow of remotely-sensed environmental data required to protect life, property and the environment and to promote economic well being. We are responsible for defining user requirements and development of conceptual engineering design of future satellite systems to meet those requirements. We cooperate closely with other NOAA offices, Federal agencies, foreign technical agencies, international scientific and technical organizations and our constituents in carrying out our responsibilities on behalf of the American public.
