What it does
NOAA's GOES Imagery Viewer provides access to weather-satellite imagery through regional and product views.
Choose a satellite sector and band, then check the image time and loop length. GeoColor and infrared bands depict different information. The viewer labels its coverage depictions approximate and its displayed data non-operational; it says these displays should not support operational forecasting or emergency response.
Strengths
- Sector, band and image-loop controls
Watch out for
- Displayed data are explicitly non-operational
Best for
- Inspecting GOES sectors, bands and dated image sequences
