Hello All,
I’ve recently been wrapping up a personal project to receive the HRIT service (1.7GHz digital transmission) from the GOES-17 (AKA GOES-West) geostationary weather satellite. Through this my system is picking up high resolution images of earth, as well as a number of text products (forecasts/discussion/alerts/etc) from the EMWIN (Emergency Managers Weather Information Network).
This system is running at my home and makes a nice addition as an on-network service for HamWAN (also available to the general internet as well). Please feel free to check it out at: http://goes.k7nvh.com
Currently I have the page set up to display the last 24 hours of data. I might consider adding an option to look back farther in the future, but for now this is where I’ve got it set.
Bandwidth warning, some of the images, especially full disk images can be very large (~50MB), I recommend not trying to grab these on your phone’s data plan.
