SPRINT can be used to simulate the actions of a constellation by utilizing crosslinks to consolidate data to be downlinked at scheduled times. It schedules, plans, and replans the activities of large Earth-observing satellite constellations under changing conditions. The SPRINT framework seeks to maximize observation data, minimize latency, and autonomously adapt to unexpected events. This is done by utilizing crosslink capabilities on the satellites, a master ground planner, and onboard local planners on each satellite.

Virtual Constellation Engine is a cloud framework to prototype and emulate line-of-sight, latency, and bandwidth of satellite applications. It provides support for orbits calculation, instrument control, and constellation monitoring (positions, CPU/memory/disk/network usage, configuration changes made to the emulated onboard instruments).

Aerospace Toolbox lets you design and analyze scenarios consisting of satellites and ground stations. You can propagate satellite trajectories from orbital elements, orbital mean-elements messages (OMM), or two-line element sets. You can also load in satellite and constellation ephemerides, import space weather, perform mission analysis tasks such as line-of-sight access, and visualize scenarios on a 3D globe. The toolbox enables you to identify eclipse intervals of satellites and ground stations, point satellites, and sensors at specific targets or specify custom attitude profiles.
As part of our continuing mission to reduce cybersecurity risk across U.S. critical infrastructure partners and state, local, tribal, and territorial governments, CISA has compiled a list of free cybersecurity tools and services to help organizations further advance their security capabilities. This living repository includes cybersecurity services provided by CISA, widely used open source tools, and free tools and services offered by private and public sector organizations across the cybersecurity community. CISA will implement a process for organizations to submit additional free tools and services for inclusion on this list in the future.
The list is not comprehensive and is subject to change pending future additions. CISA applies neutral principles and criteria to add items and maintains sole and unreviewable discretion over the determination of items included. CISA does not attest to the suitability or effectiveness of these services and tools for any particular use case. CISA does not endorse any commercial product or service. Any reference to specific commercial products, processes, or services by service mark, trademark, manufacturer, or otherwise, does not constitute or imply their endorsement, recommendation, or favoring by CISA.
After making progress on the measures above, organizations can use the free services and tools listed below to mature their cybersecurity risk management. These resources are categorized according to the four goals outlined in CISA Insights: Implement Cybersecurity Measures Now to Protect Against Critical Threats:
Satellite, temporary, and off-site vaccination clinics play an important role in improving vaccination coverage rates and vaccinating hard-to-reach populations. However, vaccination clinics held in these settings also have unique challenges. In an effort to standardize the process of holding clinics in these non-traditional settings, we have developed a checklist of best practices and created a pledge for organizations that adhere to the checklist (see below).
We recognize that it might not be possible for organizations to complete every aspect of the checklist during their first year. However, it would be great practice for your organization to implement the components that you can on a pilot basis and work towards increasing the rows that you can complete so that, in future years, you are able to implement every item on the checklist.
For individuals who have used the checklist (either on a pilot basis or as part of your standard operating procedures), we ask that you complete a short survey so that we can improve the checklist. The survey should take less than 5 minutes to complete.
This fillable (i.e. editable PDF*) checklist is a step-by-step guide to help clinic coordinators/supervisors overseeing vaccination clinics held at satellite, temporary, or off-site locations follow Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines and best practices for vaccine shipment, transport, storage, handling, preparation, administration, and documentation. This checklist outlines CDC guidelines and best practices that are essential for patient safety and vaccine effectiveness.
This pledge is for organizations that conduct satellite, temporary, or off-site vaccination clinics to sign annually affirming that they will adhere to best practices, including using the Checklist of Best Practices for Vaccination Clinics Held at Satellite, Temporary, or Off-Site Locations. Organizations that sign the pledge will be recognized on the Summit website for their commitment to provide safe and effective vaccine clinics. Companies seeking to hire an organization to conduct a vaccination clinic can check to see if that organization has signed the pledge and is recognized on the Summit website.
This list of Frequently Asked Questions provides answers to some of the most common questions about the purpose of the checklist and pledge, the intended users of the checklist, and how to use the checklist, as well as technical questions.
Ten Principles for Holding Safe Vaccination Clinics at Satellite, Temporary, or Off-site Locations
The GES DISC Level 2 Subsetter (L2S) service allows users to create customized subsets of Level 2 satellite swath data that contain particular variables of interest, cover a desired spatial or temporal domain, and limit selected variable dimensions.
Giovanni supports an ever growing set of EOS and heritage data collections. Examples of these include aerosol data from MODIS (both Aqua and Terra), MISR, and Goddard Chemistry Aerosol Radiation and Transport (GOCART) models; precipitation data from TRMM, multi-satellite analyses, and ground observations; atmospheric chemistry data from OMI, MLS, TOMS, and Halogen Occultation Experiment (HALOE); ocean color data from Aqua MODIS and SeaWiFS; and atmospheric temperature and humidity profiles from AIRS. In addition, Northern Eurasia Earth Science Partnership Initiative (NEESPI) monthly products are available, as well as CloudSat cloud and MODIS Aqua temperature and humidity data along the A-Train track.
PFAS are identified using EPA's CompTox Chemicals Dashboard, which contains a list of PFAS with explicit chemical structures and a list of PFAS without explicit chemical structures. Together, these two lists contain greater than 14,000 substances and were last updated in August 2022. View the list of PFAS with explicit structures and the list of PFAS without explicit structures for more information on how the lists were assembled.
Visit the CompTox Chemicals Dashboard to view other PFAS lists and sources for PFAS inventories. In curating datasets for inclusion in the PFAS Analytic Tools, EPA has attempted to include the widest definitions of PFAS so users can have the largest possible dataset to review. Note that the definitions used for this dashboard may not be identical to the definition used for a particular reporting resource included in this webpage.
The Safe Drinking Water Act requires that once every five years EPA issue a list of no more than 30 unregulated contaminants to be monitored by public water systems (PWSs). EPA uses the Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule (UCMR) to gather information on contaminants that are suspected to be present in drinking water and do not have regulatory standards set under SDWA. UCMR data are publicly available in the National Contaminant Occurrence Database (NCOD).
Caveats and Limitations: Data in the PFAS Analytic Tools are not real-time. After reporting, many water providers take action to reduce PFAS presence in finished drinking water. The data therefore do not show current drinking water exposures, but rather highlight areas where people might want to look further for the latest information, starting with their local drinking water provider. Additionally, ZIP Codes Served information in this file does not necessarily correlate to exposure to PFAS, as these ZIP Codes are not the definitive service areas (i.e., a public water system [PWS] may only serve a small portion of a ZIP Code it has listed as serving). Data may be added, removed, or updated over the course of the reporting cycle following further review by analytical laboratories, PWSs, states, and EPA. For answers to common questions regarding accessing and understanding the UCMR 5 data, as well as information on PFAS and lithium in drinking water, please review the UCMR 5 website.
