Awesome with underlying map capability! What will the temporal resolution ultimately be? Seems about one refresh every 5min now.

GOES-16 (or GOES-4) is the latest NOAA geosynchronous satellite launched last November. Data from it will become operational next November. This RealEarth link from the University of Wisconsin Space Sciences Engineering Center is a preview to the operational data. The "red channel" visible 0.64micro 0.5km resolution is the highest available and shown in this tiled web server rendition. However, update frequency will vary between 1 and 5 minutes when operational. Exactly how we'll get public access to this imagery remains to be seen.

Google GOES-R or GOES-16 for more info.
