This task captures the ongoing effort of the VCs in developing new and maintaining existing CEOS-ARD Product Family Specifications (PFS).
Ongoing activity. Due date should reflect ongoing nature.
The Combined CEOS-ARD for Synthetic Aperture Radar PFS, which incorporates the new Geocoded Single-Look Complex (GSLC) spec, was endorsed at LSI-VC-14 in October 2023.
Development of the Lidar Terrain & Canopy Height PFS continues and a first draft is planned for Q1 2024.
Work continues on the possible expansion of the Aquatic Reflectance PFS to cover oceans more broadly. In early 2024 we expect presentation of recommendations to the CEOS-ARD Oversight Group to update the AR PFS to include oceanic waters.
