If you need to visualize and analyze satellite images from GlobColour, SeaWiFS, CZCS, MODIS-Terra, MODIS-Aqua, GLI, OCTS, NOAA AVHRR, MOS, AMSR-E, QuikSCAT, SSMI and other sensors in many different formats (HDF, CoastWatch, Terascan, ERDAS - LAN, NSIDC, NAVOCEANO, NGSST, etc.) in the Microsoft® Windows environment then you can use the easy but powerful Windows Image Manager = WIM.

Remote sensing professionals from universities, government agencies, environmental monitoring agencies, military research organizations, exploration and other business operations as well as casual users like geographers, oceanographers, marine biologists, fishermen in at least 28 countries (see WIM User's list) are running WIM for its easy-to-use features (see WIM functions ).
W
IM runs under the current Windows operating systems.

If you are new to WIM, you may want to view the Introduction or browse through the User's Manual. You can download different satellite images from many sources (see a limited list of satellite data ).

WIM is NOT a tool for HAM radio enthusiasts nor for editing bitmap-type images (e.g. BMP, GIF, JPEG, etc.) - Sorry !
With WIM you can easily read scientific datasets (SDS) in Hierarchical Data Format (HDF), netCDF and Terascan datasets, use special functions for SeaWiFS, OCTS, CZCS and MODIS ocean color imagery, National Snow and Ice Data Center's polar datasets, PO-DAAC and NAVOCEANO MCSST and Pathfinder global SST products, create overlays of coastlines and depth contours, and much more. Established WIM users may want to regularly upgrade to the latest WIM as we upgrade often. Instructions how to install WIM and get started are given here.

Some examples of WIM and WAM applications are available here.


Parts of WIM were developed by Artur Laksberg.
