Imd weather satellite

A. K. Mitra and S. C. Bhan Satellite Meteorology Division started functioning in India Meteorological Department since early 70’s. From 1972 to 1982, IMD used to receive the Satellite imageries of NOAA and NASA meteorological satellites through Secondary Data Utilization Centre (SDUC) and images were printed on photographic paper for using in weather forecasting.Advances in satellite technology have led to improved observational capabilities. The first generation ofthe Indian National Satellite (INSAT) programme started in 1982, is a series of multipurpose geo-stationary satellites by ISRO to meet requirement of the telecommunications, broadcasting, meteorology, and search and rescue operations. In 1983 IMD has established its first satellite data receiving and processing system to receive & process the data from INSAT-1B, as a full-fledged satellite Meteorological Division for providing satellite Metrological services to the nation. Since then, IMD is providing the Meteorological Satellite Services to the Forecasters using the data from Meteorological payloads of INSAT-1, INSAT-2, and INSAT-3 series satellites. During both INSAT-1 and INSAT-2 series satellites, the temporal resolution of scan acquisitions was on 3 hourly basis & satellites Imageries were developed on a photographic sheet through photographic process till 1992 and later on Imageries were printed on photographic sheets through thermal Kodak printers. IMD had started dissemination of the satellite imageries ...

Introduction This website of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) is aimed to serve as a platform for the information sources for tropical cyclone forecasters to obtain data and tools which are useful for monitoring and forecasting of tropical cyclones. Forecasters may access the various sources providing conventional and specialized data/products including those from numerical predictions and remote sensing observations as well as forecasting tools concerning tropical cyclone development, motion, intensification and wind distribution. It will continue to develop along with the availability of new data and products and will also contain techniques and best practices from tropical cyclone forecast centers that could be adapted by other forecast centers.
