Google Earth Library

The Cooperative Institute of Meteorological Satellite Studies at the University of Wisconsin-Madison Space Science and Engineering Center (CIMSS-SSEC) has created a huge set of weather related overlays that can be viewed in Google Earth.

Their program is focused on tropical cyclones, but they also have a large amount of satellite and other data covering at the regional and global levels.  The data available in Google Earth includes:

• Storm tracking and forecast
• Recent satellite imagery
• Sea surface conditions
• Precipitation
• Maximum wind speeds
• Winds aloft analysis (wind shear, vorticity, etc.)
• Satellite animations
• Global Infrared and Water Vapor mosaics
