Training Program for the New Generation of Geostationary Satellites
Servicio Meteorológico Nacional (Argentina)
The Course material:
The training program material consist on the on-line modules in English as
well as in Spanish chosen to build up each course unit (see ANNEX I list).
There was an interpretation of the material and suitable to our needs and
length of the lectures.
During the training development, any other necessary information that it is
not included in the list of the ANNEX I, but it would be considered useful to
improve the knowledge and practices during this capacity building will be
added.

� The images examples for each of the subjects developed during the courses should be
typical RA-III scenarios. The GOES-16 is providing data for RA-III nowadays and we have
access to the data (non-operational yet).
� GOES-16 ABI and GLM data examples for the RA-III will be the used ones. (Take into
account that the HIMAWARI-8 were the main source for the COMET modules
mentioned above).
� The lectures are based on the material detailed in the ANNEX I, including local
examples from Argentina using ABI data as well as MODIS data for RGB products.
� The working group includes meteorologists from the forecast office as well as
researchers on remote sensing from the I+D group at the SMN.
Documentation from CIRA, SPORT or CIMSS was revised in order to have a complete understanding
of the different subjects involved.

All the members of the working group read the material and translated it
according to their knowledge and experience and prepare the Class Notes for
the Virtual Classroom (After that, we will prepare a presentation and a video
for each Lesson/Module).
NOTE: There was no a literal translation of any module.
There were working groups meetings to exchange ideas and clarify doubts and
questions.
A final evaluation for each lesson/module using multiple choice quizzes.
