GOES-14 One Minute Imagery

August 27, 2012 |

While GOES-14 is out of storage during the period mid-August to late October 2012, the goal is to acquire true 1-min SRSO (Super Rapid Scan Operations) super rapid scan imagery to showcase the benefits of high-temporal resolutions in an environment of both total lightning and phased-array radar. This will allow us to better prepare for GOES-R. These “SRSOR (SRSO for GOES-R)” rapid scan images (often 26 images in 30-minutes) are taken more often than what is possible with currently operational satellites.
