Links to Satellite Tutorials and On-line Resources
There are a huge number of links I could provide for connecting to sites
which include satellite information /images, etc. This list will grow
throughout the course as I direct you to new sources during lectures. In
general I am trying to build links to sites as we cover
new material.

Online Guide to Meteorology
The Online Meteorology Guide is a collection of web-based instructional modules
that use multimedia technology and the dynamic capabilities of the web. These
resources incorporate text, colorful diagrams, animations, computer simulations,
audio and video to introduce fundamental concepts in the atmospheric sciences
at a very basic level.

Access information about Landsat satellite data, applications, and details
about Landsat 7 scheduled for launch in 1998.
SPOT Homepage
Access information about the French SPOT Earth Observation System satellite
data, applications, and details about image availability.
