Mission

The NASPI Data and Network Management Task Team (DNMTT) advances the reliable, secure, and interoperable delivery of time-synchronized grid measurements across North America. We develop practical guidance, reference architectures, and metadata conventions for collecting, governing, and exchanging high-quality streaming data from PMUs and related sources. Through collaboration with utilities, vendors, researchers, and regulators, we promote resilient A and B data paths, cloud and hybrid deployments, and standards-based integration to enable real-time monitoring, analytics, and decision-making. We emphasize data quality and clarity, especially the correct use and distinction of sample rate and report rate and align our practices with evolving compliance expectations so operators can confidently turn measurements into actionable reliability outcomes.

NASPInet
Description
In 2007-09, DOE worked with NASPI to fund the development of an architecture framework for synchrophasor data networks. That “NASPInet” framework has been the prevailing guidance since that time, and various NASPInet elements were incorporated and tested in several of the SGIG synchrophasor projects...
