Upper-level Wind Derivation

Upper-Level Wind Derivation is a satellite-based meteorological technique that belongs to the class of atmospheric motion vector retrieval methods, specifically distinguished by its utilization of geostationary satellite imagery to infer wind speed and direction in the upper troposphere through cloud or water vapor feature tracking over sequential observations.
