Main functions extract a user defined subset of satellite data from hdf5 files. Currently supported products includes: QuikSCAT, Aqua MODIS and SeaWiFS. Extracted data (sea surface temperature, chlorophyll-a concentration and wind speed) can be displayed in maps and are available for further analyses.

Two satin functions allow to extract data from hdf5 files: satinGet
. The user must specify the type of data, where type refers to the NOAA product downloaded by the user, and might be one of: "oceancolor" (for both Aqua MODIS and SeaWiFS) or "quikscat". Once the data have been processed, the satinView
and quiver
functions allow to produce plots with default or user defined colors and maps. Other functions in the package allow to summarize SST or Chl-a data by geographical squares and calculate isotherms.
