v7 v8 31 31 In the image above, the outer-gimbal axis, or fixed-angle axis, is the N/S axis while the inner-gimbal axis, or sweep-angle axis, is the E/W axis. 32 32 33 This example represents the scanning geometry of the Meteosat series satellite for example. However, the GOES satellite series use the opposite scanning geometry, with the E/W axis as the fixed-angle axis, and the N/S as the sweep-angle axis.33 This example represents the scanning geometry of the Meteosat series satellite.

The possible values are `x` or `y`, `x` being the default.
