ECMWF Simulated Satellite Forecast Imagery
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/209.020

Summary
This data set contains ECMWF model forecast simulated satellite imagery over
the Western Pacific Ocean. The products include simulated channel 2 and
channel 4 satellite images. The imagery were produced from the 00 and 12 UTC
model runs every six hours to 36 hours and every 12 hours from 36 to 120
hours. These images were developed by ECMWF and are in png format.
