| Abstract | The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) National Climatic Data Center (NCDC) is responsible for the stewardship of global climatological data to support a variety of applications in the private, research, and public sectors. This includes the development of datasets to be used as input for a planned global climatological reanalysis. In support of these activities and to better streamline operations, NCDC implemented a plan to integrate surface climatological data into a common format and data model and process these data through one processing system that capitalizes on network-independent standardized quality control algorithms and procedures. Federal Climate Complex (FCC) partners (US Air Force and Navy) collaborated closely with NCDC in development of the global Integrated Surface Database (ISD), providing large volumes of data as input sources. Now, through additional partnerships, ISD is being further expanded and enhanced. |
