Core Capabilities of SENTRY™ Weather Processing System

SENTRY™ Weather Processing System is an advanced software tool that provides improved situational awareness to Launch Weather Officers (LWO) by aggregating the most important data into a fully interactive, three-dimensional display.  The system automates many launch tasks performed by the LWO, enabling faster responses to rapidly changing weather conditions. 

User Controlled 2D or 3D Map Display

Plot of Vehicle Trajectories and Volumized 3-Sigma Boundaries

Standoff Distances Specified in Eastern Range Lightning Launch Commit Criteria

User-Controlled Graphical Properties, Such As Color and Transparency

Support for HDF5, NetCDF, and Vaisala RAW Weather Radar Data Files for Display of Volumetric Weather

Near Real-Time Graphing Of Lightning Strike Data

Individual Lightning Strike Selection for Providing Detailed Information

Quicker and Safer Launch Commit Decision Making

Understanding SENTRY™ Weather Processing System

An Innovative Solution that Modernizes the Eastern Range Launch Commit and Weather Processing & Display Capability

What Is It

A safety planning tool

SENTRY™ Weather

  • A tool that provides improved situational awareness to Launch Weather Officers (LWO)
  • Aggregates and displays mission critical trajectory and weather data into a fully interactive, three-dimensional display

  • Plots weather and trajectory data on an interactive 3D globe.
  • User can pan, tilt, and zoom the camera to expose details.
  • Displays a 3-D representation of radar reflectivity.
  • Displays full volume radar scans with elevation angles, exposing the structure of cloud formations.

Where Is It Used

National Test Ranges

SENTRY™ Weather

  • 45th Space Wing Weather Squadron

What Are The Benefits

A launch vehicle safety planning tool

SENTRY™ Weather

  • Modernizes and automates the current manual process
  • Adds safety and accuracy to Launch Commit decision making process
  • Includes several sources of information, enabling quick weather decisions
  • Automates and improves accuracy of slant range calculations in determining violation of distance based Lightning Launch Commit Criteria
  • Customizable solution that can be adapted to meet the safety requirements of airports, spaceports, launch, and other operational ranges
