The global infrared satellite image shows clouds by their temperature.
At night routine visible imagery is not feasible so weather forecasters must rely almost exclusively on infrared imagery.
The visible satellite imagery is essentially a snapshot of what the satellite sees.
The thermal band is regulated on board by a dark body cavity as an extremely emissive shutter and a hot target at the ambient temperature of the instrument.
We recognize our responsibility to use data and technology for good.
