SSEC Data Center Goes to Eleven
For the first time ever, the SSEC Data Center began ingesting and archiving satellite data simultaneously from eleven different geostationary satellites. In June, the Data Center began receiving South Korean COMS satellite data (located at 128 East) via an internet relay. That brought the number of GEOs received to ten.
The Data Center went up to eleven GEOs in August, when GOES-14 (located at 105 West) was brought out of storage and began running in 1-minute scanning mode.
Data from the eleven geostationary satellites are available from the SSEC Data Center in real-time via ADDE or from the online archive also using ADDE. Please contact the Data Center with questions on how to access these data.
