Datasets tagged mcmip in Earth Engine

  • This dataset collection provides GOES-16, GOES-17, and GOES-18 Level 2 Cloud and Moisture Imagery products at 2km resolution, covering CONUS, Full Disk, and Mesoscale regions.

  • The imagery includes 16 bands: bands 1-6 are reflective and support the characterization of clouds, vegetation, snow/ice, and aerosols, while bands 7-16 are emissive and provide brightness temperature data.

  • Data is sourced from the Advanced Baseline Imager (ABI) onboard the GOES-R series of satellites, offering valuable insights for climate and weather monitoring.

  • The dimensionless "reflectance factor" quantity in reflective bands is normalized by the solar zenith angle to ensure accurate measurements.
