Our end goal of this NOAA GNSS-RO balloon project is to deploy our systems to collect real-time data and have operational impacts to global weather forecasting.

To accomplish that goal, many steps need to be taken to ensure our technology is ready. The technology development pipeline goes something like this: idea creation, lab testing, flight testing, data validation, and engineering development. Here’s a video of an early flight test we performed in late 2018. Enjoy!
