Antarctic Research Center (AARC) on selective passes by satellite
receivers located at McMurdo Station, Antarctica (77 degrees, 51
minutes S, 166 degrees, 40 minutes E.) and Palmer Station, Antarctic
Peninsula (64 degrees, 46 minutes S, 64 degrees, 4 minutes W.)
Generally, most of the Antarctic continent and its coastline are
covered daily. Swaths are 2250 kilometers long and generally start or
end over the extreme South Pacific Ocean adjacent to the Ross Sea.
Data collection from Palmer Station covers the land areas of West
Antarctica, Southern South America, the South Atlantic including the
Falkland Islands and the South Orkney Islands, and the Drake Passage
and portions of the South Pacific Ocean. Continuous data collection at
the McMurdo Station began on 26 October 1987. Data are also archived
for 30 October 1985 - 2 December 1985 and for 30 October 1986 - 30
January 1987. Continuous data collection began at the Palmer Station 3
August 1989.
The data resolution is 1100 meters at subtrack, 4000 - 6000 meters at
limb; 360 scans per minute. Satellite revisit time is twice daily,
however, due to the proximity to the South Pole, 14 passes a day are
received at McMurdo and 10 passes a day are received at Palmer from
each spacecraft.
Data are acquired, archived, processed for requesters, and distributed
by the Arctic & Antarctic Research Center (AARC). Processing of the
raw data will depend on the requirements of the requester, but a
typical sequence might be as follows:
+ Reformat raw data for extraction; up to 10 missing scan lines can be
interpolated by the software.
+ Calibrate the reformatted data to convert from brightness values to
temperature values.
+ Apply the moisture/atmospheric correction.
+ Register selected data to the user-specified grid.
+ Transfer to user-specified medium. Some examples are tape, diskette,
photographic product, or file format for electronic transfer.
About 95 percent of the presently archived data have been cataloged on
our online directory. Data dropouts, caused by transmission
interference due to solar flare activity, occur in some images; the
processing software can smooth the data if fewer than 10 scan lines
are missing. All archived images contain usable data.
Processed data are binary byte arrays of user-defined size. Full
spacecraft attitude correction and earth correction routines are
applied to the raw data to create the products. Orbital elements,
equator crossings, altitude and period of the spacecraft are generated
for the raw data using the AARC scientific workstation. Data products
can be gridded to a user-specified grid.
Data are also available in raw form (10 bits of information stored in
a 16 bit word) on 4mm DDS2 or DDS3 DAT cassettes or DLT7000 tapes.
Users would need access to an 4mm DAT or DLT7000 reader. An
alternative method to access the digital archive is to use the Sun
Workstations located at the AARC, Scripps Institution of Oceanography.
AARC personnel can be contacted for access information.C1214584927-SCIOPS1987-10-26T00:00:00.000Z/Arctic & Antarctic Research Center (AARC) AVHRR and HRPT Direct Readout Radiance Data from McMurdo and Palmer Stations, AntarcticaFE09004ANot providedSCIOPSSCRIPPS/CALSPACE/AARCSCRIPPS/CALSPACE/AARCCARTESIAN-90 -180 -50 180falsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalse0.65https://cmr.earthdata.nasa.gov/opensearch/collections.atom?uid=C1220566288-USGS_LTACMRechodev@echo.nasa.govCEOSCWICAVHRR 1-km Global Land 10-Day CompositesThe Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) 1-km Global Land 10-Day Composites data set project is a component of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) AVHRR Pathfinder Program. The project is a collaborative effort between the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), NASA, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), the European Space Agency (ESA), Australia's Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO), and 30 international ground receiving stations. The project represents an international effort to archive and distribute the 1-km AVHRR composites of the entire global land surface to scientific researchers and to the general public.
The data set is comprised of a time series of global 10-day normalized difference vegetation index composites. The composites are generated from radiometrically calibrated, atmospherically corrected, and geometrically corrected daily AVHRR observations. The time series begins in April 1992 and continues for specific time periods.C1220566288-USGS_LTA1992-04-01T00:00:00.000Z/AVHRR 1-km Global Land 10-Day CompositesAVHRR_GLOBAL_10-DAY_COMPOSITESNot providedUSGS_LTADOI/USGS/EROSDOI/USGS/EROSCARTESIAN-90 -180 90 180falsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalse0.65org.geoss.geoss_data-coregov.nasa.eosdistruetruehttps://cmr.earthdata.nasa.gov/opensearch/collections.atom?uid=C1214606060-SCIOPSCMRechodev@echo.nasa.govAVHRR data from EurimageThe National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has been operating its Advanced Tiros-N (ATN) series of satellites since October 1978. Carrying the Tiros Operational Vertical Sounder (TOVS), a low-data-rate atmospheric sounding package, and the Advanced Very-High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR), these satellites were designed primarily for meteorological applications, but the AVHRR instrument, in particular, has proved very valuable in a variety of environment linked earth observation applications, such as:
drought early warning
regional and global vegetation monitoring
snow and ice mapping
dynamic oceanography
hydrology
geology
detection of forest fires, gas flares and agricultural burning
fire fuel mapping
volcanology
air and sea pollution monitoring
toxic algal bloom detection
continental scale mapping (less than 1:3,000,000).
Eurimage distributes AVHRR data from NOAA, acquired from the TIROS satellites and received mainly at ESA ground stations. Coverage of Europe, Africa, the Middle East and parts of the Far East is provided, as shown in the sketch map below. With at least two satellites operational at any one time, each with a daily repeat cycle, twice daily and twice nightly coverage is possible for any point on the equator and approximately double this number (8 passes in total) at mid-latitudes.

TIROS / AVHRR Orbit
The TIROS satellites have a circular, polar, sun-synchronous orbit, with an altitude of approximately 840 km and an inclination of 98.7=B0 to 98.9=B0. NOAA maintain at least two operational satellites in complementary orbits, with one crossing the equator at local solar times of approximately 0730 and 1930, and the other at 0230 and 1430. By convention, the even-numbered satellites cover the 'morning orbit' (0730) and the odd-numbered satellites the 'afternoon orbit' (1430).
The Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer is a four (AVHRR/1) or five (AVHRR/2) channel passive scanning radiometer. It has one visible channel, one near-infrared, one middle-infrared, and one/two far-infrared channels. The nominal ground resolution is about 1 km. The extra channel of the AVHRR/2 (Channel 5) affords improved atmospheric correction of sea and land surface temperatures.
