NOAA Satellite Programs [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Aerospace and Electronic Systems, 1984
A description is given of current National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) programs involving Landsat as well as the METSAT polar-orbiting and geostationary satellites. These include the use of NOAA satellites as data collection platforms and the use of NOAA satellite radiometers in monitoring meteorologic, oceanographic, hydrologic, and ...

The NOAA Satellite Observing System Architecture study [PDF]

open access: yes2016 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium (IGARSS), 2016
NOAA is beginning a study, the NOAA Satellite Observing System Architecture (NSOSA) study, to plan for the future operational environmental satellite system that will follow GOES and JPSS, beginning about 2030. This is an opportunity to design a modern architecture with no preconceived notions regarding instruments, platforms, orbits, etc., but driven ...

NOAA's Coral Reef Watch program from satellite observations

open access: yesAnnals of GIS, 2011
The NOAA Coral Reef Watch (CRW) program uses near-real-time satellite measurements of sea surface temperature (SST) to monitor thermal stress of the coral reefs. These data provide up-to-date measurements pinpointing areas that are currently at risk for thermally induced coral bleaching. All of CRW's products can be accessed through CRW's Web portal at
