Satellite Imagery

Welcome to the weather satellite imagery section.

This part of the site is dedicated to provide you with the latest satellite imagery as it is obatined here at Chipping Campden.

At the moment the type of satellite data that is available is HRPT which stands for High Resolution Picture Transmission. 

This type of imagery comes from a series of polar orbiting satellites maintained by NOAA in America. These satellites orbit the Earth on average every hour and a half.

If you want to know more about HRPT and the equipment involved to receive this data feel free to visit this link where there is also a sample HRPT image converted to Jpeg available for viewing in the C/HRPT section:
