NOAA’s next generation GeoXO satellite system will expand observations beyond the current GOES-R Series, adding powerful new measurements of Earth’s atmosphere and oceans.
BAE Systems was selected to develop three of five instruments for GeoXO: the Atmospheric Composition (ACX), Ocean Color (OCX) and GeoXO Sounder (GXS) instruments. The designs for these instruments are well-understood and based on high-heritage components — allowing them to collect significantly more data than previous instruments. They will provide measurements every one to two hours, improving forecast models and subsequently increasing the accuracy of warnings and alerts related to severe weather events, air quality and harmful algal blooms, equipping stakeholders with actionable data necessary to make informed decisions.
