The first of the GOES-R series of satellites is scheduled for launch in 2014. The space weather instruments will include three instrument suites. The Solar Imaging Suite (SIS) consists of a solar X-ray sensor (XRS), an extreme ultraviolet sensor (EUVS) and a Solar X-ray imager (SXI) and will detect and locate X-ray flares, measure solar EUV flux and locate coronal holes. The Space Environment In-Situ Suite (SEISS) will provide real-time measurements of the charged particle environment in geosynchronous orbit and will monitor geomagnetically trapped electrons and protons; electrons, protons, and heavy ions of direct solar origin; and galactic background particles. The Magnetometer (MAG) will measure the earth's geomagnetic field at geosynchronous orbit in three-axes, providing information on the general level of geomagnetic activity and current systems in space. This information facilitates the detection of magnetopause crossings and sudden magnetic storm commencements, and detection of sub storms. The ultimate repository for the SEISS, SIS and MAG data will be NOAA's Comprehensive Large Array-data Stewardship System (CLASS). NOAA is actively engaging the user community for their input regarding data formats, delivery schemes and product preferences.
