COSMIC Interactive Map Product Imagery
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/114.101

Summary
This dataset includes COSMIC Map Product Imagery from the VORTEX2 field
catalogs for 2009 and 2010. These skewT images are in PNG format except for
20090706 - 20090810 where there are also GOES-12 thermal images in JPEG
format. Both the 2009 and 2010 field phases cover approximately May through
June for those years. The users will need to use the field catalogs to relate
locations of the skewT diagrams to the base image map. See the catalog links
in the related links section below to access the field catalogs.
