National contacts and links to regional web sites for satellite data and products within DFO.

Data and Products

• Ocean Monitoring Workstation Products (OMW)
  The Ocean Monitoring Workstation processes all beam modes of RADARSAT satellite images to extract information from the sea surface.
• Operational Remote Sensing (BIO)
  A time series of sea-surface temperature images describing the state of the Northwest Atlantic used to study the interrelation between fisheries and ecosystem functions.
• Remote Sensing - Sea Surface Temperature (MLI)
  Data is processed to calculate sea surface temperatures. The images are used to generate a complete national coverage for each day and averages over many days.
• Satellite Images 'Quick Look' Archive (IOS)
  Search the IOS/OS Data Inventory for Satellite sample images (AVHRR and SeaWiFS).
• Satellite Imagery (IOS)
  Images from the AVHRR on the NOAA series of polar-orbiting weather satellites, the SeaWiFS sensor on the Seastar satellite and the MERIS sensor on the European Space Agency’s Envisat satellite.
