This page provides information about the NOAA Algorithm Working Group (AWG) algorithms running within
The Clouds from AVHRR Extended (CLAVR-x) processing system. CLAVR-x is NOAA's
operational cloud processing system for the
AVHRR on the NOAA - POES and
EUMETSAT-METOP series
of polar orbiting satellites.
CLAVR-x algorithms are analogs of those developed for the GOES-R AWG
Cloud Application Team.
In addition, CLAVR-x is the basis for the NESDIS Operational Processing System (GSIP-fd) which runs on the current GOES Imager data. The Pathfinder Atmospheres (PATMOS-x) is a climate focused version of CLAVR-x. In addition to AVHRR and GOES, CLAVR-x can process MODIS, VIIRS, MSG/SEVIRI, COMS and MTSAT data.
CLAVR-x is now incorporated into the Community Satellite Processing Package ( CSPP ).
