Meteorological Satellite
Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) is planning
to launch a meteorological satellite, INSAT-3D to monitor atmospheric
characteristics viz. cloud motion winds, vertical profiles of humidity
and temperature, total precipitable water, sea surface temperature over
Indian Ocean, outgoing radiation etc. The satellite is scheduled for
launch during 2013. The data obtained from this satellite along with ground based
observations would help to derive information about climatic conditions,
including rain.
