Cameron Fire Becomes Colorado’s Largest Fire Ever
October 15, 2020
On October 14, 2020, the GOES-East satellite viewed the Cameron Peak Fire near Ft. Collins, CO, which has been burning for two months. To visualize the current blaze, the satellite utilized a combination of band 2 from its Advanced Baseline Imager (ABI), which has the finest spatial resolution of all 16 ABI bands and helps identify smaller meteorological details, as well as GeoColor and Fire Temperature products to show an approximation of daytime True Color and fire heat intensity. >>
Visible and Infrared Imagery
This imagery combines the latest half-hourly GOES infrared and visible images with NASA's 'Blue Marble' data set to create real-time animations of the weather systems over the continental United States during the past 72 hours.

Colorized Infrared
Infrared images can be 'colorized' or 'color-enhanced' to bring out details in cloud patterns. Depending on the type of enhancement, the colors are used to signify certain aspects of the data.
