Estimating precipitation areas from satellite image data / Laurie Neil, satellite meteorologist.: En57-44/84-001E-PDF

"This technical note will present a procedure for determining areas of precipitation using satellite imagery alone. The procedure will be based on elementary atmospheric dynamics theory. It is hoped that in the future this procedure might be partially automated using the PWC satellite facility, and utilized on an operational basis in the Weather Centre."
