Image Sensing as Applied to Meteorological Satellites
Earth satellites provide meteorology with an observing platform commensurate with the global nature of weather. One of the most promising satellite observations is of cloud distribution and type. Several image-sensing systems are being considered. Cloud images, both day and night with a resolution of about 0.5 mile, are ultimately desired. Problems in sensing instrumentation, communications, processing and data presentation must be solved before an operational system becomes a reality.
