<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>The images shown are derived from the "TROPICS06BRTTL1B V1.0" and </SPAN><SPAN>"TROPICS03BRTTL1B V1.0" (Level 1B) NASA GES DISC data collection, which are stored as geolocated satellite observations points of brightness temperature for individual instances of time. In the generation of this Webmap, certain QC parameters were applied to attain the best quality data. Using the Inverse Distance Weighted (IDW) interpolation tool in ArcGIS Pro's geoprocessing toolbox, the Webmap's raster images were produced, and further displayed. All representations of time in the layer names are in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). The value range was chosen to show an optimal color contrast.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN /></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
