[Datastream #SXB-674928]: GOES East West imagery...



Hi Gilles,

I apologize for not being able to get back to you before now.  I
ran out of time on Wednesday afternoon, and I was out of the office
all day yesterday.

I have attached three images that I think well demonstrate the
higher resolutions of the GOES-East and GOES-West as compared to
the GOES-East/West composites:

GOES_East_IR_ir_upc2_20150213_2215.png     - GOES-East IR sector for 22:15 UTC 
today
GOES_West_IR_ir_upc2_20150213_2230.png     - GOES-West IR sector for 22:30 UTC 
today
GOES_EastWest_IR_ir_upc2_20150213_2215.png - GOES-East/West IR composite for 
22:15 today

I created the displays with:

- Adaptive Resolution turned off

  Edit -> Preferences -> View

- Projections -> Auto-set Projection off

  The projection used was CONUS.

- displayed Brightness in Fields tab

- Match Display Region from the Region tab

- Magnification of 1 from the Advanced tab

- used Gempak -> group 1 -> ir_upc2 enhancement

I think you will agree that the size of the pixels in the East/West composite
image are noticeably larger (i.e., lower resolution) than the ones in either
the GOES-East or GOES-West sectors. Please let me know if you agree/disagree
with my assertion.

Cheers,

Tom
