Geo2grid software accesses SatPy libraries that allow for the reading of level-1c netcdf files holding FCI (Flexible Combined Imager) data from the latest operational Meteosat satellite (Meteosat-12). So if you can access to that output, you can create beautiful images as the ones shown above. The RGB shows a storm... Read More
This short tutorial will explain how Polar2Grid can show individual isobaric levels, and also lapse rates (dT/dp) between two isobaric levels. Polar2Grid is CSPP software designed to process files either from the NOAA NODD (EDR files for NOAA-20 are here; EDR files for NOAA-21 are here) or from Direct Broadcast antenna... Read More
The Community Satellite Processing Package (CSPP) software Polar2Grid supports the creation of imagery using Microwave Integrated Retrieval Software (MIRS) algorithms. This is useful because on-line sources of imagery occasionally go missing. Consider, for example, the Snowfall Rate values that are available at this site from GINA. NOAA-20 was viewing parts of...

Scientists and programmers at SSEC/CIMSS have been working with Hydra within McIDAS-V to augment its functionality, enabling it to view data from the Cross-Track Infrared Sounder (CrIS) on JPSS Satellites (Suomi-NPP, NOAA-20 and NOAA-21). How is this functionality accessed? After downloading the McIDAS-V package, and opening it, a user will... Read More
