 The National Polar-orbiting Operational Environmental  Satellite System (NPOESS) will continue the NOAA tradition of  providing a platform for the French Data Collection System  (DCS).  The advanced DCS (A-DCS) carried on-board NPOESS  satellites will provide global coverage and platform location of  in-situ data collection platforms.  These platforms are  equipped with sensors and transmitters which permit  applications such as monitoring drifting ocean buoys,  monitoring weather conditions at remote sites,  and studying  wildlife migration paths.
