AVHRR Global Area Coverage (GAC) data have a spatial resolution of 4km, which corresponds to the intended spatial resolution of the objective Dvorak technique. GAC digital image data is available in mapped mosaics, orbital swaths and brightness composties. The AVHRR is a 4/5 channel radiometer with spectral bands in the visible, near infrared, and thermal infrared. The AVHRR has remained a relatively stable instrument (i.e., similar sensor channels on each satellite) in polar orbit and provides at least twice daily observations of the entire globe from 1979 to present. The satellite data were gridded with grid centers fixed on the tropical cyclone center of circulation. Data include hurricanes from all tropical cyclone-prone basins in the world. Data are provided in a convenient NetCDF format which is self-documenting and follows standard storage and metadata conventions Version 5 supersedes all other versions. To provide a cohesive data set of historical tropical cyclone centered imagery for future analysis. completed National Centers for Environmental Information Customer Engagement Branch +1 (828) 271-4800 ncdc.satorders@noaa.gov pointOfContact asNeeded https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/pub/data/metadata/images/C00857_HURSAT-AVHRR%20browse.JPG HURSAT-AVHRR JPEG Earth Science > Atmosphere > Weather Events > Tropical Cyclones Earth Science > Human Dimensions > Natural Hazards > Tropical Cyclones > Hurricanes Earth Science > Human Dimensions > Natural Hazards > Tropical Cyclones > Typhoons Earth Science > Atmosphere > Atmospheric Pressure > Anticyclones/Cyclones Earth Science > Atmosphere > Atmospheric Pressure > Sea Level Pressure Earth Science > Oceans > Ocean Optics > Radiance Earth Science > Atmosphere > Atmospheric Radiation > Albedo Earth Science > Atmosphere > Atmospheric Radiation > Net Radiation Earth Science > Atmosphere > Atmospheric Radiation > Optical Depth/Thickness Earth Science > Atmosphere > Atmospheric Radiation > Solar Irradiance Earth Science > Spectral/Engineering > Infrared Wavelengths Earth Science > Spectral/Engineering > Visible Wavelengths Earth Science > Atmosphere > Clouds Earth Science > Atmosphere > Atmospheric Water Vapor theme Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Science Keywords 2018 revision Version 8.6 Global Change Data Center, Science and Exploration Directorate, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) https://earthdata.nasa.gov/about/gcmd/global-change-master-directory-gcmd-keywords HTTPS Web Browser Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Keywords The information provided on this page seeks to define how the GCMD Keywords are structured, used and accessed.
