RGB Training Library

Satellite imagery contains much of the physical information needed for nephanalysis. However, such analysis requires skills and experience to enable interpretation and extraction of the necessary information from imagery. Red-green-blue (RGB) composite imagery can be easily created by overlapping and displaying color satellite images to present information from several satellite channels.

Note: As work on color interpretation for Himawari-8 remains ongoing, the content of this site may change in the future.
