| Description | High quality Sea Surface Temperatures (SSTs) maps derived from the NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration)-Polar Orbiting Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) have been available since 1981. The multichannel sea surface temperature algorithm (MCSST) has been used to routinely calculate SSTs using a split window approach. Currently this algorithm is applied by the Naval Oceanographic Office (NAVOCEANO) to calculate SSTs at a near real-time rate. |

| Platform/Sensor | NOAA-16 / Platform Name: National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration-16 (NOAA-16) Orbit Period: 102.1 minutes Inclination Angle: 99 degrees Ascending Node: 1970-Jan-01 00:00:00 AVHRR-3 SENSOR Name: Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer-3 (AVHRR-3) Swath Width: 2400 km Description: The AVHRR is a radiation-detection imager that can be used for remotely determining cloud cover and the surface temperature. Note that the term surface can mean the surface of the Earth, the upper surfaces of clouds, or the surface of a body of water. NOAA-17 / Platform Name: National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration-17 (NOAA-17) Orbit Period: 101.2 minutes Inclination Angle: 98.7 degrees Ascending Node: 1970-Jan-01 00:00:00 AVHRR-3 SENSOR Name: Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer-3 (AVHRR-3) Swath Width: 2400 km Description: The AVHRR is a radiation-detection imager that can be used for remotely determining cloud cover and the surface temperature. Note that the term surface can mean the surface of the Earth, the upper surfaces of clouds, or the surface of a body of water. NOAA-14 / Platform Name: National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration-14 (NOAA-14) Orbit Period: 102 minutes Inclination Angle: 99 degrees Ascending Node: 1970-Jan-01 00:00:00 AVHRR-2 SENSOR Name: Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer-2 (AVHRR-2) Swath Width: 2400 km Description: The AVHRR is a radiation-detection imager that can be used for remotely determining cloud cover and the surface temperature of water land and clouds. |
