 Additional Information by confederate (21)   03/01/2014 

This disc was made in colabration between the Free University of Berlin and Eumetsat. It is an interactive disc for meteorology students.

To give you a good idea what this very rare disc is about I will cite the back cover:

CLOUD MOTION IMAGE SEQUENCES FROM GEOSTATIONARY AND POLAR-ORBITING WEATHER SATELLITES

CONTENTS

METEO DISC is designed as a so-called resource disc. METEO DISC contains about 600 image sequences from geostationary and polar-orbiting meteorological satellites. Most scenes are made of METEOSAT image data, but there are also scenes from ATS-3, SMS-1, GEOS-E, GMS-1, and NOAA-7 and -9...

The chapters are arranged by dates; each chapter is based on one single homogeneous set of image data, which in many cases was processed under aspects of covered area or time interval... Chapter 1 presents an overview of the spatio- temporal distribution of all image sequences, while chapter 2 offers a collection of key words with reference to appropriate chapters.

INTRODUCTORY FILM

The bi-lingual film "Cloud Motions: Dynamic Scales and Display" by C.ZICK and G.WARNECKE demonstrates the different possibilities of displaying and manipulating cloud motions from satellite images sequences. Some of these loop modes can be generated through remote control units of disc players, others only through PC-controlled access.

OPERATING THE DISC

METEO DISC can be operated by the standard commands "play", "step", and "search" from a remote control unit. Almost all image sequences have stop-codes on their first and last images...
