- 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.
- WebP Image (WEP) is an image file format developed by Google in 2010. It is based on the VP8 video format and is used to create smaller, higher quality, and lossy compressed images. It is supported by most major web browsers and is commonly used for web graphics.
