Abstract :
A system for near real time processing of NOAA-AVHRR satellite data is described. The system allows for the final imagery, geometrically corrected and calibrated, to be obtained only a few minutes after the satellite pass. An application example is presented: the production of snow cover weekly composites for Scotland during the winter of 1996
