GOES-10 Channel 2 (Shortwave IR) Imagery
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/68.025

Summary
The GOES-10 Channel 2 (Shortwave) Sectored Imagery (GIF) is one of several
satellite products collected as part of the Dynamics and Chemistry of Marine
Stratocumulus Phase-II: Entrainment Studies (DYCOMS-II) project field catalog
operated by the National Center For Atmospheric Research/Earth Observing
Laboratory (NCAR/EOL: http://catalog.eol.ucar.edu/dycoms). NCAR/EOL utilized
its SeaSpace system to retrieve data from the Geostationary Operational
Environmental Satellite 10 (GOES-10) and developed sectors over the DYCOMS-II
region. This data set consists of the sectored 4-km imagery from Channel 2
(shortwave; 3.90um) of the GOES-10 satellite. the products cover the period
from 1-30 July 2001 and cover the DYCOMS-II sector (27-37N and 114-126W). The
products are typically available every 15 minutes, but rapid scan imagery are
also often available (most often during the afternoon and evening hours). All
images are in gif format.
