Meteosat-7 Atmospheric Motion Vector Data

This data set contains atmospheric motion vector data derived from Meteosat-7 visible, infrared, and water vapor data. The data covers the Indian Ocean region and includes winds from all vertical levels and over both ocean and land. The data are in a columnar ASCII format and were provided by the Cooperative Institute for Meteorological Satellite Studies (CIMSS).
