  skos:definition """NOAA-11 (ATN series) was launched on September 24, 1988 and is a
third-generation operational meteorological satellite for use in the
National Operational Environmental Satellite System (NOESS).  The
satellite design provides an economical and stable sun-synchronous
platform.  This platform enables the satellite to carry advanced
operational instruments to measure the earth's atmosphere, its surface
and cloud cover, and the near-space environment. The satellite is based
upon the Block 5D spacecraft bus developed for the U.S. Air Force, and
is capable of maintaining an earth-pointing accuracy of better than plus
or minus 0.1 degree with a motion rate of less than 0.035 degree/second.

Primary sensors include (1) an Advanced Very High Resolution
Radiometer (AVHRR), (2) TIROS Operational Vertical Sounder (TOVS), and
(3) a Solar Backscatter Ultraviolet Spectrometer (SBUV/2).  The
secondary experiment is a Data Collection System (DCS). A Search and
Rescue (SAR) system is also carried on NOAA-11.
