- Description
- The SST (AVHRR Image) file type is associated with satellite imagery, particularly from the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) sensor, which is carried on NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) satellites. These files contain sea surface temperature (SST) data, which is crucial for monitoring oceanic and climatic conditions. The SST data is used in various applications, including weather forecasting, climate research, and environmental monitoring. The files are typically utilized by scientists, researchers, and meteorologists who analyze the Earth's surface temperature patterns and their impact on global climate systems.
- An ICO file is an image format used to store icons for Windows programs, files, and folders. It contains two bitmaps: 1) the AND bitmap - the image mask (which determines what part of the icon is transparent) and 2) the XOR bitmap - contains the icon which is mapped onto the image mask. ICO files can be modified to create custom icons.
