Satellite Image Gallery

Here will be built a collection of some of the more interesting archive satellite images taken over the UK. All images are taken from NOAA satellites and processed by the Remote Sensing Research Group at the Department of Geography, University of Berne, Switzerland, or the MODIS Rapid Response System, generally cropped to centre over the UK from the original full size.
