Summary
Abstract: At the AMRC offices in the Crary Science and Engineering Center at
McMurdo Station, the AMRC collects and archives the National Oceanic
and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) polar orbiting High Resolution
Picture Transmission (HRPT) images from the earth station there. This
data is archived on tape and the tapes are periodically flown in from
McMurdo to be added to ... View entire text
