We will explore
the usefulness of synoptic data in Satellite analysis, the problem areas
encountered, and where this data can be found.
|
|
|
|
Why should I use
synoptic data? How can this possibly
help me with my next position fix?

|
How many times
have you stared at an infrared image, looping it back and forth looking for
anything that resembles a circulation center, only to may a reasonable guess
that you aren’t entirely confident in?
|
|
|
|
How many times
have you told yourself, “I wish there was something I could use to get a
better idea of where this center is?”
|
|
|
|
Have you ever
scratched your head, wondering what the intensity actually is in a poorly
organized system?
|
|
|
|
Synoptic data
could give you a better idea, when the satellite imagery is not very
clear-cut.
