【 摘 要 】

One of the new thrusts of the Earth Science Technology Office (ESTO) Advanced Information Systems Technology (AIST) Program is the New Observing Strategy (NOS) thrust. Its goal is to provide a framework for identifying technology advances needed to exploit newly available observational capabilities, particularly to enable the development of the information technologies needed to support planning, evaluating, implementing, and operating dynamic, multi-element sets of observing assets. In this paper, we will introduce relevant NOS terminology and some key concepts before describing the objectives, driving factors and technology goals of this new thrust.
