GOES Imager | Resolution: 10-12 Km | Frequency: 30 minutes |
Continental US Composites | These images were composites of derived meteorological parameters utilizing an Atmospheric Sounder on both GOES East and GOES West. The images are generated every 1 hour using one larger composite image. Since the failure of the GOES East Sounder, only the GOES West Sounder image is shown.

Global Mosaic of Geostationary Satellite Imagery (GMGSI) | This product is generated every 3 hours including global geostationary longwave infrared (IR), shortwave IR and visible composites image at 8 km spatial resolution. In the generation of the global geostationary composite images, GOES, METEOSAT, and Himawari-8 datasets are remapped and concatenated using standard McIDAS image commands to generate an image dataset in AREA file and NetCDF format.

Equatorial Mercator Composites |
Product shows a composited Visible, Infrared or Water Vapor image of the Equatorial Tropics from about 40North Latitude to 40 South Latitude. These Polar Mapped Mosaic composite satellite images are generated using composite AVHRR GAC data gathered onboard NOAA's polar orbiting satellites (NOAA-18 and NOAA-19). These images are created once per day. Tropical Mercator Composites – Page |
