Company Background:
Advanced Interactive Multi-Satellite Search Tool

Based on the previous-generation Interactive Multi-Satellite Search Tool, this tool added the important ability to display the selected contents of satellite data files in real-time. This allowed researchers to interactively see the preliminary contents of their subset search and then produce fully geolocated composite files suitable for use with traditional Geographic Information Systems (GIS) or mapping applications.

As with the previous-generation search tool, all datasets update according to their own space-time characteristics, allowing researchers to use data as-is without any front-end requirements for preprocessing to a common spatial or temporal grid.  This ability is important when ingesting real-time or unprocessed data.

The Advanced Interactive Multi-Satellite Search Tool, with coverage footprints for the SSM/I (long rectangular outline) and the OTD (square outline) satellites, ground-strike lightning events (yellow/black dots) and the correlated real-time remapped GOES composite data (blue-white color scale).  By using advanced satellite coverage algorithms, this tool allows researchers to quickly and intuitively find the desired subset of satellite data from large (usually 100+ Gigabyte) data files.  The search results could be interactively displayed by this tool or processed into a geolocated composite image for further use by other applications.
