Environmental Information Services Working Group (EISWG) An Overview NOAA SAB—EISWG (January 2010)

Background 2003—Fair Weather Report (NRC) “The NWS [National Weather Service] should establish an independent advisory committee to provide ongoing advice to it on weather and climate matters…” 2004—NOAA Policy on Partnerships in the Provision of Environmental Information 2006—NOAA SAB recommended an ad hoc, limited duration working group to examine improving communications with public, private, and academic entities 2008—Ad hoc working group recommended that the NOAA SAB create EISWG to address environmental information services across NOAA 2009—First EISWG meeting held November NOAA SAB—EISWG (January 2010)

The Charge To provide advice on improving communication among the sectors To provide advice on incorporating scientific and technical capabilities to enhance NOAA products and services Provide a sounding board on NOAA’s Policy on Partnerships in the Provision of Environmental Information Evaluate NOAA effectiveness in responding to advice received from EISWG, and the environmental information enterprise as a whole; Evaluate after two years, whether the working group is an effective mechanism for working with external partners or whether other mechanisms should be considered NOAA SAB—EISWG (January 2010)

EISWG I First Meeting held in Silver Spring, Maryland, November Excellent program and participation on behalf of NOAA Senior Staff Group identified information needed in order to better determine work plan Group identified key actions and issues to address over the next six months Agreement to serve as a “community listening post” and open to feedback from all corners NOAA SAB—EISWG (January 2010)

Topics Discussed Strategic Focus Evaluation/Review Process for NOAA Partnership Policy Implementation NWS Information Services Changes Climate and Weather Literacy Communication of Uncertainty (warnings) Observational and Forecast Requirements Exploitation of the new Weather Information Data Base NOAA SAB—EISWG (January 2010)

Next Steps Obtain more information Engage with the broad community (beginning with AMS 2010) Organize next EISWG meeting—April 2010 Begin to determine priorities for the work plan Ensure that the EISWG is complementing other, ongoing WG efforts (e.g., climate) NOAA SAB—EISWG (January 2010)
