These montages of brightness temperatures, measured at 6.7 micrometers, are available on 70-mm photofacsimile film strips. Positive or negative copies of the film strips are available in uniform density exposure in either transparencies or paper prints. Daytime and nighttime orbital swaths are displayed in strips, each corresponding to a distance approximately from pole to pole and a width from horizon to horizon. The ground resolution of 22.5 km at nadir decreases as the horizontal distance from the subsatellite track increases. Each film strip is gridded with geographic coordinates and is identified by orbit number, time, and an indication of whether it is daytime (D) or nighttime (N). The strips are arranged chronologically on 100- to 500-ft rolls of film.
