SAT DUNDEE

Data from SeaWiFS and also from MODIS, carried on the EOS AM/PM series satellites, is being received and archived. Data are also received from METEOSAT S-VISSR and other geostationary satellites for daily use but are not routinely archived for more than a few days.

The archive is kept on tape and CD-ROM, with a photographic archive kept for quick browsing. Data from satellite passes is kept on disc for six days allowing customers to order interactively on the World Wide Web. Passes older than that can be restored from the archive upon request.
As far as coverage is concerned, images can be received from a large circle centred on Dundee, reaching as far as Newfoundland, Morocco and the Canary Islands, the Black Sea, Novaya Zemlya and Greenland.
