Period: 2000-01-01--01-31

Authors: Lars Eliasson and Peter Wintoft

1. Progress status

Two of the technical notes (TN1 Database and database tools and TN3 Satellite anomaly prediction module) have been uppdated See http://www.irfl.lu.se/saaps/saapsin t/.

Java code has been written that implements feed-forward neural networks. See http://sol.irfl.lu.se/saaps/saa psint/doc/

A network for the prediction of daily anomaly Meteosat-3 data using sum Kp as input has been implemented in Java. See http://sol.irfl.lu.se/saaps/saa psint/doc/

The Java matrix package JAMA has been incorporated. See http://www.irfl.lu .se/saaps/saapsint/java_related.html

5. Action items

The following 8 Action Items were defined during PM2 held in Kiruna 12-14 October:

1. Scheme for coding sensitive information shall be sent to Alain Hilgers for approval in the end of November 1999.**See page 10 in Database and database tool URD**

2. Alain Hilgers shall investigate the availability of other anomaly data sets at ESTEC. Information shall be sent to by end of October.

3. Peter Wintoft will send email remainder to those that have not responded and send the questionnaire to ESOC before the end of October. ** Letter and questions were sent by email on 16 November 1999**.

4. Alain Hilgers will give names to contact at ESOC before end of October.

5. Peter Wintoft shall send information and questionnaire to SWEN before end of October. ** A description of SAAPS was emailed to SWEN on 27 October 1999. **

6. Peter Wintoft shall investigate usefulness of environment data from polar orbits (at least DMSP and TIROS) before the end of November. ** Availability of DMSP data has been investigated. Decision to investigate other sources of LEO particle data. **

7. Peter Wintoft shall submit the URD for WP110 to Alain Hilgers before 31 October in pdf-format. Alain Hilgers shall notify in a couple of days if critical problems exist in the URD. **The URD was delivered on 28 October 1999. Response from Alain Hilgers was received on 5 November. **

8. A draft version of the URD for WP310 shall be sent to Alain Hilgers by mid-November. **Draft version was delivered on 17 November 1999. **

6. Milestone payment status

N/A

7. Expected dates for major schedule items
