Abstract :
The authors have developed a computer program that can identify a specific incoming satellite data stream; restore the date and time stamp; select the correct parsing algorithm; parse the data; import the data into a relational database; sort, test, analyze, and manipulate the data according to a predetermined weather-prediction algorithm; and, finally, format the data for further processing or for data warehousing
