Title: AVHRR SDS and PATMOS-x

Generation of Cloud Products from NOAAs
Operational Satellite Imagers
  • While advanced imagers such as VIIRS and ABI will
    provide significantly improved cloud remote
    sensing capabilities, the data from AVHRR and the
    GOES imagers provide our best current real-time
    cloud observing system from imager data.
  • The Clouds from AVHRR Extended System (CLAVR-x)
    derives cloud properties from the AVHRR that are
    physically similar to those from MODIS, VIIRS and
    ABI and provide valuable experience to NOAAs
    customers that should increase the usage of cloud
    products during NPOESS and GOES-R.
  • Similar algorithms to those used in CLAVR-x are
    run on GOES imager data and provide a consistent
    suite of cloud products to NOAAs customers at
    multiple spatial and temporal resolutions.
