intertronic Posted November 26, 2015 Report Share Posted November 26, 2015 Hello, does anyone knows a satellite taking pictures at night with an archive catalog? ideal is a satellite like AQUA or TERRA taking imagery every day. regards M.

intertronic Posted November 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2015 i guess there is NPP : (NASA-NOAA Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership satellite launched in 2011, which imagery was used to create blue marble and black marble) but i cannot find the catalog.. http://npp.gsfc.nasa.gov/ http://www.nasa.gov/pdf/596329main_NPP_Brochure_ForWeb.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arhanghelul Posted November 26, 2015 Report Share Posted November 26, 2015 Landsat 7 ETM+ has some night images in the archive, but only the thermal bands can be useful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

intertronic Posted November 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 (edited) i found here a list of all satellite (most geostationary meteo) with live imagery http://imkhp2.physik.uni-karlsruhe.de/~muehr/satbilder_e.html still what i looks like it's something like this http://qz.com/359880/satellite-images-as-conflict-intensifies-lights-go-out-in-syria/ in this case it seems that VIIRS (Visible Infrared Imager Radiometer Suite) was used (on soumi satellite of NOAA) ¨http://www.geog.umd.edu/featuredcontent/3211 Edited November 30, 2015 by intertronic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intertronic Posted December 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2015 Then, theoretically, Skybox satellite can also take night imagery, but there is at the time no catalog.. http://www.skyboximaging.com/blog/Nighttime-HD-Satellite-Video and EROS-B satellite with a very high resolution http://www.imagesatintl.com/products/very-high-resolution-satellite-imagery/night-image/ here an example over Paris http://www.imagesatintl.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/NightImage1_Large.JPG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
