Persistent Hot Spot Detection and Characterisation Using SLSTR [PDF]
Gas flaring is a disposal process widely used in the oil extraction and processing industry. It consists in the burning of unwanted gas at the tip of a stack and due to its thermal characteristic and the thermal emission it is possible to observe and to ...

The Sentinel-3 SLSTR Atmospheric Motion Vectors Product at EUMETSAT [PDF]
Atmospheric Motion Vectors (AMVs) are an important input to many Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) models. EUMETSAT derives AMVs from several of its orbiting satellites, including the geostationary satellites (Meteosat), and its Low-Earth Orbit (LEO ...
