Results of kinematic analyses of Hurricane Frederick (1979) performed using satellite wind vectors, aircraft measurements and rawinsonde data are presented. The data were gathered, reduced, preliminarily integrated and used to analyze the structure of the storm in the inflow and outflow layers. The mean structure at large radii is in good agreement with composite analyses of tropical cyclones. Changes in the storm structure from 11 to 12 Sep. 1979 suggest that remote sensing techniques are useful in monitoring storm intensity. A more sophisticated integration of the various data, including determination of optimum heights for satellite wind vectors, is underway.
