New Quick Guides

Two new quick quides were published this week.  The GOES Dust – CVD RGB quick guide was developed by Bill Line and Dan Bikos. This RGB is particularly useful for color vision deficiency (CVD) compared to the traditional Dust RGB. They also produced the GOES Blowing Snow RGB quick guide.  This complements the existing VIIRS Blowing Snow quick guide since the colors of blowing snow are not quite the same between VIIRS and GOES.    The quick guides are available at: https://rammb2.cira.colostate.edu/training/visit/quick_reference/  (POC: Dan Bikos, Dan.Bikos@colostate.edu, CIRA, Bill Line, NOAA, Erin Sanders, CIRA, Erin.Sanders@colostate.edu) Funding: GOES
