GOES (Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite) and POES (Polar Operational Environmental Satellite) are both types of environmental satellites operated by NOAA to monitor weather and environmental conditions. GOES is positioned in geostationary orbit providing continuous monitoring of a specific area, while POES orbits closer to Earth's poles providing global coverage. Both types of satellites gather data on weather patterns, natural disasters, and environmental changes to support forecasting and research.
