NOAA POES GAC (4km) Data (Level 1b)
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/72.068

Summary
The NOAA POES GAC Data set is one of several satellite data sets collected by
the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research/Joint Office for Science
Support (UCAR/JOSS) as part of the EPIC project. Included in the data set are
Global Area Coverage (4 km resolution) measurements from the Advanced Very
High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) aboard the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration (NOAA) Polar Orbiting Environmental Satellites (POES). The data
cover the period from 7 September - 28 October 2001. Data are available at
POES satellite overpass times. These data were acquired from the NOAA
Satellite Active Archive (http://www.saa.noaa.gov) and are in level1B format.
