GOES-West Imager Near IR CH2 Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/353.018

Summary
This dataset contains GOES-15 Imager CH2 Near IR Satellite data (AREA format).
The data are provided as TAR/GNU zip files. Each tar file contains all routine
GOES sectors scanned for that date. These sectors are the original GOES
sectors, including CONUS, Northern Hemisphere, Southern Hemisphere, Full Disk
and Rapid Scan (as available). The suggested software for manipulating and
displaying these data is McIDAS. The data covers the DC3 project study area
from 16 May to 30 June 2012.
