MetNet small weather satellite technology measures all things weather, everywhere, all the time

Near-constant Coverage Never Misses an Important Detail

Unlike the current sparse weather coverage, MetNet will map changing patterns pole-to-pole and surface-to-space. MetNet will collect global weather data down to the detail in less than 30 minutes. Specific mission solutions include: 

  • Infrared Sounding
  • Atmospheric Temperature
  • Humidity
  • Tropospheric Winds
  • Air Quality
  • Space Weather
  • Upper Atmospheric Dynamics
  • Ocean Color (Hyperspectral Imaging)

Atmospheric Sounding of Temperature and Moisture Profiles is the Key to Improving Weather Forecast

Working with our MetNet Alliance Partners, our constellations will be fully loaded with the best in space-based environmental monitoring:

  • Theater Weather Imaging and Cloud Characterization
  • Day-Night Imaging
  • Microwave Sounding and Imaging
  • GPS-Radio Occultation
  • EO/IR Limb Viewing for Atmospheric Chemistry
  • Space Weather, both in situ and remote sensing
