Weather satellite satellite data. Collectively, weather satellites flown by the U.S., Europe, India, China, Russia, and Japan provide nearly continuous observations for a global weather watch. As early as 1946, the idea of cameras in orbit to observe the weather was being developed. This was due to sparse data observation coverage and the expense of using cloud cameras on rockets. By 1958, the early prototypes for TIROS and Vanguard (developed by the Army Signal Corps) were created. The first weather satellite, Vanguard 2, was launched on February 17, 1959. It was designed to measure cloud cover and resistance, but a poor axis
Satellite Cloud Image Satellite Cloud Image A Satellite Cloud Image is an image based on data from meteorological satellite instruments. It captures the distribution of clouds in the atmosphere, to find the weather system and verify the correctness of surface weather maps that have been drawn. It can also be used with observations of sea ice distribution to determine the sea surface temperature and the medium-and long-term weather forecast oceanographic data. This technology can be a single image to show a variety of scales of weather phenomena to provide a very useful remote sensing data, weather analysis and forecasting. In general, the satellite
