The cloud top temperature from the IDV should already be there if you open the 
satellite imgery
from the ADDE server, the calibration of cloud top temperature is done by the 
sever.

The archived satellite data is available from SSEC data center, and it should 
be free if
you get it through your institute. I will find out how to do it and send you a 
link later.
