live-cloud-maps VS worldview

Messing around with SDR is a really fun little hobby. There's something very satisfying about picking up signals that are just floating around waiting to be seen.

I briefly tried writing an SDR tuner in JavaScript a while back but there was a bug somewhere between Chrome and my SDR dongle that meant it failed whenever you tried to tune to a different frequency. I might pick it back up and see if it's possible now.

If you're interested in near-realtime weather images without having to fiddle with SDR, NASA collate images from loads of different satellites at https://worldview.earthdata.nasa.gov/ and so do EUMETSAT at https://view.eumetsat.int/productviewer?v=default#

I used the EUMETSAT data to build this service which provides 3-hourly cloud maps for the whole Earth, which are surprisingly difficult to find: https://github.com/matteason/live-cloud-maps

You can grab the source data from EUMETSAT directly - the URLs are all listed in https://github.com/matteason/live-cloud-maps/blob/3be662483c...

The products used are:

"Geostationary Ring IR10.8 μm Image - Multimission" - https://data.eumetsat.int/product/EO:EUM:DAT:0330

"Geostationary Ring Dust RGB - Multimission" - https://navigator.eumetsat.int/product/EO:EUM:DAT:0334

"Geostationary Ring Natural Colour RGB - Multimission" https://navigator.eumetsat.int/product/EO:EUM:DAT:0336

These images are taken from https://worldview.earthdata.nasa.gov/. The three satellites used for the images are the Terra/MODIS, Aqua/MODIS, Suomi NPP/VIIRS and GCOM-W1/AMSR2 (For wind speed only).

you can use this link if you want to see satellite pics of the fires, you can see the smoke plumes from up high, it's pretty great

You might enjoy browsing NASA EOSDIS Worldview. The spatial resolution is low, but there's a lot to look at in the oceans. You see the traces of wind, interesting cloud patterns, algae blooms, etc. But you also get a sense of how showing any one day as the map wouldn't make a lot of sense.

I find a tool like NASA Woldview is about as good as it gets. Would also suggest contacting an outfitter in the area, they’re usually more than happy to help with questions like that
