Mapped Global Area Coverage (GAC) - Polar Stereographic
Entry ID:
gov.noaa.ncdc.C00328
Summary
Abstract:
This dataset (along with Mapped GAC-Mercator) is the longest essentially continous and relatively homogeneous global product that has been produced from data collected by environmental satellites. The instruments were at first a vidicon camera system (visible data only) followed by an evolving series of scanning radiometers, including VHRR and AVHRR instruments. The MAPPED GAC data are mapped into ...
 Purpose: To make a wide range of climatic data available to researchers and the public. CURRENTNESS REFERENCE: Ground Condition Pricing is dependent on customer order specifications. Please contact NCDC for information on fees and terms for retrieving the Data Set or Product.
