First map of clouds on an exoplanet Researchers map out clouds on a "hot Jupiter," paving the way for future work.

Stitching together a live world map from many different satellite images lets algorithms keep an eye on the health of crops and problems like flooding.

The maps provide a fine-grained view of how clouds move around in our atmosphere and represent an important link between climate and ecological research.

Clouds, tall buildings and the risk of typhoons were among the challenges for a Hong Kong company charged with taking the images behind the first 3D Google Earth map of an Asian city.

Google's Earth and Maps have had an update that "virtually eliminates clouds" for most of the world. Some of the new images of the Earth also have a much better resolution than before, to bring ...

Ready for your regular reminder that technology is magic? Google has just rid the earth of clouds. Well, Google Earth, at least*. They've just pushed an update to the satellite imagery found in ...

Until then, you can check out the new Landsat 7-based satellite imagery by heading over to Google Maps and turning on satellite view, or by launching Google Earth and zooming out.

The model, Goddard Earth Observing System Forward Processing, uses satellite and sensor data to show aerosol in the atmosphere.

The capability of open-data sources in cloud computing was explored in rainfall–run-off modelling through the Soil Conservation Services curve number (SCS CN) model. The Google Earth Engine (GEE) has ...

I’ve seen a lot of images of our fair blue world, but this one is unique and (somewhat more than metaphorically) breath-taking: a map of Earth showing its average cloudiness. That gorgeous ...

Although crude, the weather maps may be the first to identify clouds on a planet outside the solar system. In the future, a similar technique could help astronomers study clouds on Earth-like ...

Almost 60 years after a Polish astronomer spotted clouds of dust orbiting Earth near the moon, astronomers have detected those clouds again.
