Himawari 8/9 Region 03 Himawari Standard Data - Near Real-Time (NRT) data stream

Updated: 2023-01-06

Himawari 8/9 region 03 observations in the Himawari Standard Data (HSD) data format, distributed by the Japan Meteorological Agency to other national meteorological agencies, such as the Bureau of Meteorology. This product contains the uncalibrated digital numbers as retreived by the Advanced Himawari Imager instrument. Calibration coefficients must be applied to create physically meaningful units. Intended for expert users only. Higher level products derived from this data can be found in the Bureau of Meteorology - Satellite Observations (ra22) and Bureau of Meteorology - Satellite Derived Products (rv74) data collections. This collection aims to provide all hosted datasets in near real-time (NRT), shortly after the products have been received by Bureau of Meteorology systems. Only the last three months of a product in NRT will be available. Products that are provided in near real-time can be found under a nrt directory.
