VISSRSMS1IMIR contains Visible Infrared Spin-Scan Radiometer (VISSR) infrared imagery from the first Synchronous Meteorological Satellite (SMS-1). The data, originally recorded on 70mm film and later scanned to TIFF files, captures thermal emissions in the 10.5 to 12.5 micrometer band for meteorological observation. Each image includes metadata titles and a 33-level gray scale representing brightness temperatures, with a maximum spatial resolution of 3.7 km per pixel.
License is listed as 'other-license-specified' on some platforms but is 'None' on others; users must verify terms. Data is packaged in ZIP files containing hundreds of TIFF scans, each with 2-3 pictures.
