Meteosat-9 Imager 1 km Visible Data (MciDAS Format)

This dataset contains full resolution meteosat-9 data collected during the PREDICT project. The University of Wisconsin Space Science and Engineering Center (SSEC) made available the full resolution METEOSAT-9 imager data to the PREDICT investigators. NCAR/EOL collected and archived these data for access after the campaign. During PREDICT, METEOSAT-9 (a Meteosat Second Generation Satellite) was the operational Prime satellite, stationed at 0W. These data are in AREA file format and consist of 1km vis channel data files. Individual files exist for each of the original sector scans during the period 15 August - 30 September 2010. All files are gzip'ed to minimize size and download time. Each filename contains the UTC date/time stamp at which the sector was broadcast. For more information about Meteosat-9, please see: http://www.eumetsat.int/Home/Main/ServiceStatus/index.htm?l=en .
