Re: New Areas to Watch Past Arlene

We are working on another automated animation product and would like your feedback. This product is called "Channel Surfer".

For the Tech guys: This web based product automatically grabs real time satellite JPG images, converts to GIF, resizes, splits to frames, applies filters, animates and then propagates to file. While any user with the appropriate access permissions could generate these images on the fly, it is likely we will serve pre-made images to John Q.

This is an animation of 3 GOES channels. Visible, water vapor and IR4.



1. Do you find value in this product?
2. Would you mind if a larger version resulted in a slower download time?
3. Would you want to see additional channels included?
