Environmental Satellite (GOES) collects thermal infrared History of Thermal Infrared Remote Sensing Environmental Satellite (GOES) collects thermal infrared data at a spatial resolution of 8 x 8 km for weather prediction. Full-disk images of the earth are obtained every 30 minutes both day and night by the thermal infrared sensor.
