For all the magnified images, the size of the pixels (25.4 km, about
14 nautical miles) will be left unchanged, and no interpolation will
be done. This is to avoid misleading users to believing that there is
more detail than the data really have. This product is not intended
for use in navigation!
Custom images take a few seconds to generate. The time required to
transfer the image will depend on the size of the region, the
magnification, and the area chosen. The range should be a few Kb to
a few tens of Kb.
You can click
on a point in the map below and get a 550 by 550 km image (5 degrees by
5 degrees, 300 nautical miles by 300 nautical miles) centered on the point
you select. These images take a few seconds to create, and are typically
3-8 Kb.
The daily automatically
constructed images are archived:
