NOAA's (US National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration) operational environmental satellite system is composed of: geostationary operational environmental satellites (GOES) for short-range warning and "nowcasting," and polar-orbiting environmental satellites (POES) for longer term forecasting. Both kinds of satellites are necessary for providing a complete global weather monitoring system. The satellites carry search and rescue instruments, and have helped save the lives of more than 20,000 people to date. The satellites also are used to support aviation safety (volcanic ash detection), and maritime/shipping safety (ice monitoring and prediction).
