This technology improves NOAA\u2019s prediction of hurricanes, tornadoes and other extreme weather events and the accuracy of weather models three-to-seven days in advance by providing more precise temperature and water vapor information.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cL3Harris\u2019 CrIS instrument enables NOAA to add greater fidelity to its severe weather forecasts and severe weather events around the world,\u201d said Rob Mitrevski, vice president and general manager, Spectral Solutions, Space and Airborne Systems, L3Harris. \u201cEarlier detection and forecasting leads to earlier warning and preparation time for people potentially in harm\u2019s way.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Orbiting the Earth 14 times a day, the CrIS instrument onboard the JPSS-2 gathers hyperspectral, infrared content that aids NOAA in \u201cnowcasting\u201d and global, long-term forecasts. The CrIS also improves understanding of longer-term weather and climate phenomena and greenhouse gas concentration and transport, helping advance NOAA\u2019s pursuit of a more weather-ready nation. The CrIS instrument, currently orbiting aboard the Suomi-NPP and NOAA-20 satellites, will also fly on JPSS-3 and JPSS-4, scheduled to launch in 2027 and 2032, respectively.<\/p>\n<p>The JPSS-2 launch brings together an combination of L3Harris technologies beyond the CrIS including an integral suite of rocket launch avionics, X-band and Ka-band payloads that transmit images and scientific data, and S-band transceiver uplinks that commands the spacecraft and downlinks spacecraft health information.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; L3Harris Technologies has announced its Cross-Track Infrared Sounder (CrIS), designed to enhance severe weather detection capabilities, successfully launched aboard NOAA\u2019s Joint Polar Satellite System-2 weather satellite.
