For information contact Alan Muir (asm@ua.ndu.ac.uk).
University of Hawaii Satellite Oceanography site. AVHRR images within the
radius of reception of the university's HRPT station, approximately 5 S to
45 N and 125 W to 165 E, and from a station in San Diego. The processed
images are available usually within 30 min. of NOAA-12 passages. GMS
images of the full GMS coverage area and over the TOGA-COARE area are
available.
Links to North American, European, and Asian satellite image sites.
Useful because it gets everything together in one place, and contains
background information about the platforms, products, and formats.
NRL Monterey satellite photos and movies. Various research-oriented
images from GOES-9. Movie loops from GOES-8, GOES-9, and GMS.

Visible and IR hourly GMS-5 images in gif format (neat pictures, may be
enhanced), and in hdf format (raw, intended for research), in the directory
"pub/Weather/GMS-4". Resolution is 5 km so images are 2-3 MB in size.
The hdf files have navigation information included. The "pub/Weather/GOES-7"
directory contains half-hourly visible and IR GOES-7 images in gif and hdf
formats; the IR data is 8 km resolution and the VIS is a very large 4 km
resolution. Also, "pub/Weather/GOES-8" now contains GOES-8 images.
48-hour MPEGs also available.
