Source for Data Layers;-
A) Stadsman's "Global infrared satellite images. A collection of real time colour enhanced infrared satellite images, updated every 3 hours. Super impose rainfall/atmospheric moisture and "see though" the clouds to assess the amount of rainfall presentBe your own weatherman!
B) Paul Buxtons Solar Position Calculator- Superimpose the actual position of the sun onto the overlay.-Deleted--link permanently down
C) World Sunlight Map. This German site is a trully execllent source of real time data on World Sunlight progression. ( http://www.die.net/ )b Updated every 60mins this overlay shows real time progression on Sunlight and Cloud Cover around the globe (Please DO NOT increase the Refresh Rate-)
D) Radeon's -Global Cloud Map. Updated every hour
E) Latest Sea Surface Temperatures. pdchawaii. Sea Surface Temperature Weekly global Sea Surface Tempatures. fields on a 1 degree by 1 degree grid. The analysis uses both in-situ SSTs and satellite derived SSTs from the NOAA Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR)
F)Projection Used :-- Using an equirectangular projection (plate carre).
Plate Carre or Equirectangular projection, this projection is one way of looking at the spherical Earth as a flat map. Though it distorts area, shape, and angles, it is often used in computer applications because the X and Y axis map directly to latitude and longitude. Compared to the Mercator, Peters, or Mollweide projections, the Plate Carre allows an almost exact fit when placed on a sphere.
