Current Imagery Full Caribbean - Satellite Imagery The images that are in these directories are three day composite images. The date on the image is the middle day of the three days. A composite is different than an average as it is used to reduce cloud coverage. This means that if there is cloud coverage on one or more of the data points, this value is not used to compute the average. These composites are made with both day and night satellite pass imagery. The Caribbean Sea images have dimensions of 512x512 pixels at a spatial resolution of 3.5 km x 6.7 km, covering the area 8° N - 24° N and 89° W - 58° W. These images are useful to examine basin-wide patterns of sea surface temperature,including upwelling in the southern margin of the basin, effects from hurricanes, and in general to quickly generate time series for any location throughout the Caribbean basin. The archive is arranged by year and month. Links appearing in gray-on-gray text have no data available for that particular month. We offer our images with a Google Earth perspective.
