The <strong>GOES</strong>-R Requirements Management Process is the process by which user requirements for<br />

environmental data from geostationary satellites and ground processing systems are generated. The<br />

requirements are translated into more detailed system specifications and are assessed for impacts.<br />

6.1.1 Requirements Hierarchy<br />

The GPO has designated four levels of requirements. The figure below provides the hierarchy and<br />

examples of the four levels of requirement documents.<br />

Figure 17 – <strong>GOES</strong>-R Requirements Documents Hierarchy<br />

All <strong>GOES</strong>-R requirements are derived from the NOAA Consolidated Observation Requirements List<br />

(CORL), which documents and prioritizes observational requirements across all NOAA Programs. The<br />

NOAA Observing Systems Council coordinates annual updates of the CORL and performs two functions:<br />

• Allocation of user identified observing requirements to the appropriate NOAA observing system<br />

program office<br />

• Verification that the observing systems are consistent with NOAA’s existing and planned<br />

Observing Systems Architecture<br />

<strong>GOES</strong>-R Level I Requirements, documented in the <strong>GOES</strong>-R LIRD (P417-R-L1RD-0137) are the<br />

user/science requirements that are allocated to the <strong>GOES</strong>-R program.<br />

The Level I requirements serve as the supervisory documents for the <strong>GOES</strong>-R program. All subsequent<br />

documents flow down from the Level I documents. .<br />
