Data types that can be received and processed are from X-band transmitting polar orbiting satellites, Terra and Aqua, both equipped with MODIS instruments, Suomi NPP\u00a0 and L-band data from the geostationary (GEOS-12) satellite. Using a 2.4m robot-controlled positioning antenna enclosed in a weatherproof dome, X-band data is acquired, processed and archived daily. Concurrently, GOES data is also acquired, processed and archived using a nearby stationary 3.7m antenna. This is CREST primary tool for Remote Sensing and earth observation studies.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_291\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-291\" style=\"width: 278px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/134.74.15.28\/hires\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/2014.0616.1821.npp_.global.rgb_1.png\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-291\" src=\"http:\/\/134.74.15.28\/hires\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/2014.0616.1821.npp_.global.rgb_1.png\" alt=\"2014.0616.1821.npp.global.rgb\" width=\"278\" height=\"386\" srcset=\"https:\/\/crest.cuny.edu\/hires\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/2014.0616.1821.npp_.global.rgb_1.png 576w, https:\/\/crest.cuny.edu\/hires\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/2014.0616.1821.npp_.global.rgb_1-216x300.png 216w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 278px) 100vw, 278px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-291\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Suomi NPP RGB Image over Eastern US , June 16th 2014<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>Some Products Include:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Suomi\/NPP VIIRS<\/li>\n<li>GOES products include images of the Earth&#8217;s surface and cloud cover derived from radiation samples of the Earth and its atmosphere.<\/li>\n<li><strong>MODIS Products (Level 0) &#8211; raw radiances<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>MODIS Products (Level 1B)<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>MODIS Products (Level 2)<\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li>Aerosols<\/li>\n<li class=\"wp-image-291\">Cloud Properties<\/li>\n<li class=\"wp-image-291\">Cloud Profiles<\/li>\n<li class=\"wp-image-291\">Corrected Reflectances<\/li>\n<li class=\"wp-image-291\">Forest Fires<\/li>\n<li class=\"wp-image-291\">Ocean Color<\/li>\n<li class=\"wp-image-291\">Sea Surface Temperature<\/li>\n<li class=\"wp-image-291\">Sea Ice<\/li>\n<li class=\"wp-image-291\">Snow Cover<\/li>\n<li class=\"wp-image-291\">Vegetation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Satellite Receiving Station Satellite Receiving Station website The Satellite Receiving Station (SRS) consists of two separate antennas and acquisition systems.
