Untitled

I intend to add additional information and links to this article. I was assigned to the Air Force organization that operated the DMSP satellites from January 1976 through November 1980 in various capacities and still posess much training and general documentation for the program. Since those documents were unclassified by definition as products of the Air Force become reproducable in an environment such as Wikipedia.

These additions appear to be a verbatim copy of http://www.zianet.com/jpage/spysats/weather/dmsp.html . No evidence of permission to copy has been supplied. —Fleminra 19:43, 16 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have re-added the text because according to User talk:Fleminra#DMSP Article, User:TDRSS is the author of the web page in question. —Fleminra 23:13, 16 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Table short date format.

Does anyone have a problem if I convert the short (numeric) dates in the table to the ISO format, as in their current format they are open to misinterpretation. --GW_Simulations_{User Page | Talk} 10:57, 17 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Short discussion of primary instrument

Primary instrument is the Operational Line Scanner (OLS). There was a program (ended in late 1999) to develop the Multi-spectral OLS (MOLS). Program was cancelled in order to try to keep funding for the new NPOESS instruments that were to have come on line several years ago. The current satellites can take "fine" imagery at appro 1/3 km resolution - still the highest resolution weather satellite in operation (that I know of).
