USGS EROS Archive - Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) - Orbital Pass Generation and Stitching

Orbital Pass Generation Nearly 45,000 individual observations were acquired during the first 30 months of this project. The number of individual scenes and overall data volume, an estimated 4.0 terabytes, are large by contemporary standards. As a result a new process was developed to improve data management.

USGS EROS Archive - Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) - Sensor Characteristics

Background The Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) is a broad-band, four or five channel (depending on the model) scanner, sensing in the visible, near-infrared, and thermal infrared portions of the electromagnetic spectrum. This sensor is carried on NOAA's Polar Orbiting Environmental Satellites (POES), beginning with TIROS-N in 1978.
