The "Digital Typhoon Dataset" is a dataset of meteorological satellite images and the best track of typhoons in the Northwest Pacific basin. The meteorological satellite imagery is created from infrared imagery (11 micrometers) from geostationary meteorological satellites Himawari 1 to 9 by a map projection (Lambert azimuthal equal-area) of a 1250 km radius centered on the typhoon. The best track is created from the best track data published by the Japan Meteorological Agency by interpolating it into hourly data. As of October 2023, it consists of 189364 images for 1099 typhoons from 1978 to 2022 and will be updated annually. This is a particularly useful dataset for machine learning, and the official dataset page explains its use for machine learning.
