Abstract
The earth-resources technology satellite (ERTS) NASA Data-Processing Facility (NDPF) is organized functionally into two units: 1) the telemetry and image data processing (TIDP) where the bulk of all data are transformed into user-oriented media; and 2) The data services laboratory (DSL) where all production scheduling, accounting, cataloging, storage and retrieval, dissemination, and user services will be performed. The NDPF will be a dedicated facility for doing only ERTS processing and will be colocated with the Operations Control Center (OCC) on the top floor of Building 23 at Goddard Space Flight Center. The facility is being planned to be capable of processing a data volume based on continental U. S. coverage plus 1 hour per day of video data obtained from an on-board wide-band video tape recorder.
