1 INTRODUCTION

This contract data requirements list (CDRL) document defines the requirements for deliverable documentation to be provided by the Sounder for Microwave-Based Applications (SMBA) Contractor. Section 1 includes definitions and instructions for distribution. Table 1 presents the CDRL item by item, with due dates, quantity, and media format. Section 2 contains the data item descriptions (DID), descriptions of each item which provide the use for the deliverables and the required preparation information. Except where specifically indicated to the contrary, the formats and drawing standards used shall be those normally used by the Contractor and by its subcontractors.

1.1 Export Control Limitations

Some of the content for documents provided by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) (Goddard Space Flight Center [GSFC]) and United States (U.S.)

industry will be subject to the U.S. International Traffic In Arms Regulations (ITAR), 22 CFR 120-130, by the U.S. Department of State and/or the Export Administration Regulations (EAR), 15 CFR 730-744, by the U.S. Department of Commerce. NASA may exchange technical information with the foreign partners and related entities (e.g., contractors and subcontractors) utilizing licensing exemptions to the ITAR and/or EAR, supported by the authority and content of the standing Letter of Agreement (LOA) and/or the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between NASA/the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and that foreign partner, as appropriate. U.S. industry may exchange ITAR sensitive technical data under the authority and conditions of Technical Assistance Agreements (TAA), approved by the U.S.

Department of State as appropriate.

NASA and U.S. industry will mark and thus notify foreign partners and related entities of the exchange of ITAR and/or EAR sensitive data with variations of the following language.

1.1.1 ITAR Technical Data

The unclassified technical information included is controlled under the U.S. ITAR, 22 CFR 120- 130, by the U.S. Department of State. Transfer of this information to a foreign person or entity requires an export license issued by the U.S. Department of State or an ITAR exemption to the license requirement prior to the export of transfer.

These items are licensed by the United States for ultimate destination [foreign partners and related entities]. Diversion, retransfer, disclosure, or use contrary to applications specified in NASA/NOAA agreement without prior U.S. authorization are prohibited.

1.1.2 EAR Technical Data

The unclassified technical information included is controlled under the U.S. EAR, 15 CFR 730- 744, Export Control Classification Number 9E515.a and 9E515.x by the U.S. Department of Commerce. Transfer of this information to a foreign person or entity requires an export license issued by the U.S. Department of Commerce or an EAR exemption to the license requirement prior to the export of transfer.

Check the LPD TDMS Server at https://ipdtdms.gsfc.nasa.gov/frontmenu_dsp.cfm to verify that this is the correct version prior to use.

These items are licensed by the United States for ultimate destination [foreign partners and related entities]. Diversion, retransfer, disclosure, or use contrary to applications specified in NASA/NOAA agreement without prior U.S. authorization are prohibited.

1.2 Proprietary Data

Some of the content of documents may be of a proprietary nature to the document preparing/sending Party. In the event data is deemed to be proprietary, and for which protection is to be maintained, the sending Party shall mark the document with a notice to indicate that the data therein is proprietary and shall be used and disclosed by the receiving Party and its related entities (e.g., contractors and subcontractors) only for the purposes of fulfilling the receiving Party’s responsibilities under the Near Earth Orbit Network (NEON) program, and that the identified and marked technical data shall not be disclosed or retransferred to any other entity without prior written permission of the document preparer. Data improperly marked as proprietary shall be rejected by the contracting officer’s representative (COR) and returned for removal of proprietary markings.

1.3 Prior Submission Deliveries

If new hardware, software, or documentation is developed, procured, designed, fabricated, tested, or processed in a different manner from that of the first SMBA flight instrument effort (obsolescence, corrective actions, modifications, errors, etc.), the Contractor shall deliver the data item as required with the necessary updates for Government acceptance.

1.4 Due Dates – Related Definitions

1.7 Applicability

The following definitions apply to "Applicability (APPLIC)" column in Table 1.

ETU – Applies to the Engineering Test Unit (ETU).

FM1 – Applies to the first flight model.

AFM – Applies to additional flight models (i.e., in addition to FM1).

1.8 Updates

All CDRLs shall be Update As Required (UAR). The Contractor shall notify the Government of any pending updates and re-deliver the CDRL on a schedule agreed to by the Government.

Table 1 does not specify this repetitious requirement, however UAR is required for each CDRL.

1.9 Documentation Change Procedures

Unless otherwise defined in the SOW or contract:

a. When a minor correction/change is needed or has been made to a few parts of a “Final” version of a CDRL item that has already been delivered to the Government, the Contractor shall issue within 30 days a Documentation Change Notice starting with the number 001.

Change bars or “change tracking” shall be used to indicate the locations of changes unless the particular file type does not have those features available. If not available, the details of the changes will be described in a text file.

b. When a major correction/change is needed or has been made to all or multiple parts of a “Final” version of a CDRL item that has already been delivered to the Government, the Contractor shall deliver within 30 days a complete revision of the CDRL item. A description of all changes incorporated into the new revision shall be included in the new document or otherwise documented. No change bars are used when a document is updated by revision, and the Documentation Change Notice numbers for that document shall be automatically recycled to 001.

1.10 Delivery Instructions

a. The Contractor shall deliver each CDRL item via the media indicated in accordance with the schedule and any special instructions indicated in Table 1 and/or the corresponding DID, and in accordance with the contract or SOW requirements and provisions.

b. All CDRL items shall be delivered electronically (one electronic copy for each CDRL item) to an electronic library designated by the Government. If all or a portion of a CDRL item is not well-suited for electronic delivery, the item may be delivered via hardcopy upon mutual agreement between the Contractor and the Government.

With each prior delivery submission, the Contractor shall include a cover letter with the following information:

• CDRL #

• Title

b. Use of witness samples

The Committee on Earth Observation Satellites Working Group on Calibration & Validation provides the below definitions for calibration and validation. Reference https://ceos.org/ourwork/workinggroups/wgcv/.

Calibration is the process of quantitatively defining a system’s response to known and controlled signal inputs.

Validation, on the other hand, is the process of assessing, by independent means, the quality of the data products derived from those system outputs.

Elaborating on these terms in the context of SMBA:

NS1 SMBA CDRL NS1-SMBA-CDRL-0001, Revision A

Check the LPD TDMS Server at https://ipdtdms.gsfc.nasa.gov/frontmenu_dsp.cfm to verify that this is the correct version prior to use.

Calibration inputs are electromagnetic (EM) energy from a scene at certain frequencies and the response (outputs) are the integrated energy under a channel spectral response function.

The data products to be validated (i.e., assessed for quality) are:

Raw Data Records (RDR)

Temperature Data Records (TDR)

Sensor Data Records (SDR)

Environmental Data Records (EDR)

Note: Per NS1-SMBA-REQ-0001 section 1.4 and requirement SMBA-93, the instrument will produce RDR files. The NOAA Ground System (NGS) will use RDR data and instrument calibration data to produce higher-level data products such as TDRs, SDRs, EDRs. The CV-1 Cal/Val Plan only needs to describe Contractor activities for validation of RDR and validation of the SMBA calibration data used as inputs for TDRs, SDRs, EDRs. The document does not need to describe the entirety of TDR, SDR, and EDR validation, as those processes are controlled by

NOAA.
