The Dvorak technique (developed between 1969 and 1984 by Vernon Dvorak) is a widely used system to estimate tropical cyclone intensity (which includes tropical depression, tropical storm, and hurricane/typhoon/intense tropical cyclone intensities) based solely on visible and infrared satellite images. Within the Dvorak satellite strength ...

NOAA offers free satellite map to survey damage from Hurricane Ian
A weather satellite or meteorological satellite is a type of Earth observation satellite that is primarily used to monitor the weather and climate of the Earth. Satellites are mainly of two types: polar orbiting (covering the entire Earth asynchronously) or geostationary (hovering over the same spot on the equator ).
In August, four Black Swift S0 drones were launched into the heart of Hurricane Ernesto from NOAA’s P-3 hurricane hunter. As Black Swift orbited the eye, it dropped as low as 200 feet.
