TIROS-7 satellite data provides global coverage of radiance measurements from a five-channel scanning radiometer. The Level 1 Final Meteorological Radiation Data (FMRT) contains radiances expressed as equivalent blackbody temperature for infrared channels and effective radiant emittance for visible channels, with a 55 km footprint at nadir. Data collection began after the satellite's launch on June 19, 1963, and continued for two years, archived in its original IBM 36-bit proprietary format.
