Le Radiomètre Avancé à Très Haute Résolution (AVHRR) est un instrument imageur multi-spectral qui s'est montré précieux dans de nombreuses applications de toutes sortes dans le monde entier. AVHRR/3 est la dernière version embarquée à partir de NOAA-K sur les satellites américains et sur les satellites Metop d'EUMETSAT. Depuis ces satellites, il fournira une vue globale des nuages deux fois par jour, ainsi que de fréquentes images des surfaces terrestres et maritimes. C'est l'instrument standard pour la cartographie mondiale de la végétation à une résolution d'un km, et il observe aussi les températures de surface de la mer et l'étendue des glaces. 5, record 1, French, - radiom%C3%A8tre%20perfectionn%C3%A9%20%C3%A0%20tr%C3%A8s%20haute%20r%C3%A9solution
