Abstract
GeoMetWatch (GMW) is the first, and currently only, commercial, fee-for-service company licensed by the US Government to operate a global geostationary ultra-spectral imaging/sounding system. GMW leverages the state-of-the-art technology developed by NASA and NOAA to provide an affordable and innovative solution to deliver a constellation of next-generation ultra-spectral sensors that will provide frequent, global infrared/visible measurements for weather, climate and environmental use, but at a fraction of the cost of conventional, dedicated systems. GMW’s license allows for a method to deliver these advanced data with limited export control restriction.
