Fog detection MSG2
High resolution colours using HRV for lum and ch1...3 for colour
Hires (1)
- Red =(HRV x IR_016) / LUMlo
- Green=(HRV x VIS008) / LUMlo
- Blue =(HRV x VIS006) / LUMlo
- LUMlo=IR_016 + VIS008 + VIS006
Hires (2)
- Red =HRV + IR_016
- Green=HRV + VIS008
- Blue =HRV + VIS006
Note: Colour saturation low because the "Black-and-White HRV is superimposed on the colour lores picture.
Lores
- Red =IR_016
- Green=VIS008
- Blue =VIS006

Plate carree mapping of METOP 22-7-2007, start 20:25
Next pictures are all received with the HRPT/CHRPT/PDUS decoder.
For most pictures just 2 software programs are used:
- DOS-program HRPT.EXE
- Unix program XV, only to translate to JPEG
The Sahara picture is also received with the HRPT.EXE program, but a different program is used to combine received channels into a colored picture.
The Spain picture is colored with the new wsat program (Linux).
See also Wil Pfeifer's home page with more pictures recorded with this decoder.
