Technical note: A new day- and night-time Meteosat Second Generation Cirrus Detection Algorithm MeCiDA

A new cirrus detection algorithm for the Spinning Enhanced Visible and Infra-Red Imager (SEVIRI) aboard the geostationary Meteosat Second Generation (MSG), MeCiDA, is presented. The algorithm uses the seven infrared channels of SEVIRI and thus provides a consistent scheme for cirrus detection at day and night. MeCiDA combines morphological and multi-spectral threshold tests and detects opticall...

Meteosat Second Generation Cirrus Detection Algorithm MeCiDA

Technical note: detection and adjustment of abnormal test-day yields.

A method to detect and to adjust or exclude abnormally low or high milk, fat, and protein yields on test-day (TD) was developed. Predicted TD yield is calculated based on preceding and subsequent (if available) TD yields. Observed TD yields that are < 60% or > 150% of predicted TD yield are defined as abnormal. Most abnormal yields are adjusted to this floor or ceiling, but some are excluded. Y...

The Image Processing Facility for METEOSAT Second Generation

The first METEOSAT Second Generation satellite will come into service in 2001. It will acquire image data in 12 spectral channels with a total data volume of 265 Mbytes every 15 minutes. These data are received, processed, and distributed by the EUMETSAT Ground Segment in real-time. The Ground Segment architecture is composed of blocks of grouped functionality called facilities. The Image Proce...
