The Global Hydrology and
Climate Center, part of NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center, provides
a very good interface to satellite images.
This system presents the user with a satellite image and allows the
user to click to zoom in on different parts of the image, to 4km resolution,
and animate those parts.
- GOES-EAST Full Disk
- GOES-WEST Full Disk
- GOES-EAST Continental United States
- GOES-EAST Carribean and Gulf of Mexico
The
CIRA Images are
the images that come in on their GOES feed,
plus additional zooms related to the Colorado area. They are not
at the full resolution of the feed (except for the zoomed images)
so that they are much easier to deal with than the images from
NASA/ARC. The archive is valuable, although it only goes back to
the beginning of the year.
