HIRS Level 1B - NOAA - Global

Description

The High Resolution Infrared Sounder (HIRS) operates at 20 channels (19 channels in the infrared and one in the visible). Its main purpose is to provide input for the vertical temperature and humidity profile retrievals. In addition, the HIRS pixel resolution serves as the standard grid resolution for all ATOVS level 2 products. From 2 November 2023, the NOAA-19 HIRS level 1B data (provided in 3-minute granules) are no longer available. These data are, instead, distributed as full dump data through the Global NOAA ATOVS L1 service.
