Statement of Work
CLS America (Argos) Satellite Communications
1.0 BACKBROUND
ARGOS is a satellite-based location and data collection system dedicated to monitoring and protecting the environment. NAVOCEANO autonomous vehicles (AVs), which depend on the ARGOS satellite communications system currently include: oceanographic profiling floats, gliders, drifting buoys, moored platforms, current meters, tide gauges, emergency alert transmitters, etc. All of these platforms are currently transmitting real-time data via the NOAA Polar Orbiting Satellites, to Collection & Location by Satellite via America (CLSA), who then sends the raw data to NAVOCEANO and authorized Fleet users.
Each NAVO AV is equipped with a Platform Transmitter Terminal (PTT) which sends messages to an Argos satellite each time the AV comes to the surface. Charges for use of Argos services are based on Platform Transmitter Terminal (PTT) transmissions. All PTT transmissions are subject to charges as soon as they transmit. This includes tests performed by a manufacturer, field testing prior to deployment, and transmissions subsequent to deployment.
2.0 SCOPE
The scope of this task is to provide the continuation of NAVOCEANO ARGOS real-time AV data down-linking collection, processing, distribution and archival services.
3.0 OBJECTIVES/TASKS
3.1 Provide location and downlink services and global automated data distribution from all satellites within the current operational ARGOS System constellation for NAVOCEANO platforms (drifting buoys, profiling floats, gliders, current meters, tide gauges, marine mammals, etc.)
3.2 Provide daily automated distribution of data files for all of NAVOCEANO's ARGOS program groups via File Transfer Protocol (FTP).
3.3 Maintain user accounts and control limited data access to various users in support of all NAVO ARGOS individual programs and platforms.
3.4 Provide or restrict telnet access to autonomous vehicle telemetry data and allow approved user access to data online. Restrict access (based on program) to specified users.
3.5 Provide monthly autonomous vehicle telemetry archive data on CD ROMs for selected programs.
4.0 SERVICE AND DELIVERY SUMMARY
| Category |
| Services |
| Service Descriptions |
| DAJ00012 |
| Buoys & Others |
| PTTs in this category are drifting and moored buoys and, more generally, all those PTTs which do not belong to float and animals categories. |
| DAJ00013 |
| Animals & Floats |
| PTTs in this category are those that are used to track animals and transmit on either a designed-in (by the manufacturer) duty cycle or on an effective duty cycle, as with many marine animals, or subsurface floats such as the ARGO program floats. |
| DAJ00000 |
| Auxiliary Location Processing (ALP) |
| Provides alternative processing for data where the minimum requirements for reliable location calculation are not met. Locations calculated with two or three messages during a satellite pass, as well as diagnostic data, are provided. ALP is applied to individual PTTs and the cost is included with Basic Service. |
| DAM00008 |
| Inactive Service |
| This is the minimum service available and is intended for PTT transmissions no longer of use to the User or the global community. (Free of Charge) |
| DAM00007 |
| Monthly Active Platform Fee |
| Any platform that transmits during a month will be charged the monthly active platform fee. |
| DAV00023 |
| Unused ID Numbers |
| Platform numbers which are assigned to a User’s program and have not transmitted for 24 months will automatically be charged a fee per month unless avoided by returning ID numbers that are not transmitting. |
| DAV00058 |
| Data Processing Modifications |
| Initial set up for accounts is made free of charge. Future changes are subject to modification charges. Modification of Username or Password, the type of processing, the number of bits per sensor, altitude, calibration curve, location class, transfer of a PTT between programs or between type of service, etc. are made within three business days from receipt of written request. One modification will be charged per PTT or for groups of ten or less if the modifications and formats are identical. |
| DAV00000 |
| ArgosWeb |
| Users may access data online using the ArgosWeb. A variety of new functions, including customized tables and colourful land and maritime maps are available. |
| DAV00051 |
| Email or File Transfer |
| Data may be distributed automatically by email or file transfer (ftp) through the Internet. |
| DAV00044 |
| Databank |
| Databank CDs greater than 1 megabyte. |
5.0 PLACE OF PERFORMANCE: This service can only be performed at the CLSA Headquarters
