As showers and thunderstorms associated with the disturbance became better organised, [6] satellite imagery on 29 September revealed that the disturbance's circulation was becoming better defined. [7] As a result, by 21:00 UTC that day, it developed into Tropical Depression Twelve.
Tropical storm Rafael displaying an example of a CDO. It is a large region of thunderstorms surrounding the center of stronger tropical and subtropical cyclones which shows up brightly (with cold cloud tops) on satellite imagery. [1] [2] [3] The CDO forms due to the development of an eyewall within a tropical cyclone. [4]
Infrared satellite imagery can be used effectively for tropical cyclones with a visible eye pattern, using the Dvorak technique, where the difference between the temperature of the warm eye and the surrounding cold cloud tops can be used to determine its intensity (colder cloud tops generally indicate a more intense storm).

The first images from space were taken on the sub-orbital V-2 rocket flight launched by the US on October 24, 1946. Satellite image of Fortaleza.. Satellite images (also Earth observation imagery, spaceborne photography, or simply satellite photo) are images of Earth collected by imaging satellites operated by governments and businesses around the world.
A look at Helene from satellite at 3:30 p.m., this time using infrared imagery. The storms around the eyewall this afternoon are very tall, very strong, and once again, increasingly symmetrical.
The MODIS instrument onboard NASA's Terra satellite captured this true-color image of Tropical Cyclone Gafilo churning in the waters northwest of Madagascar on March 6, 2004. At the time this image was taken, Gafilo has sustained winds of approximately 160 mph. Cyclone warnings had been posted for all of northwestern Madagascar.
