Geostat: Navigation routines for some geostationary satellites ( METEOSAT, GOES, MSG )

Language/Sofware: C, Fortran
Application type(s): Data Read/Write
Related project(s): GOES, METEOSAT, MSG
Description:
A set of routines to compute latitudes, longitudes, azimutal and zenithal angles from rows and columns in the satellite grid (and the reverse)
Author(s): C wrapper : Fabrice Ducos ( ICARE – LOA – Univ. of Lille ) ; FORTRAN Library developped by SATMOS and supplied by Geneviève Sèze ( LMD )

Fis2raw: A tool to convert the FIS format (from the SATMOS, at Lannion) into a simple, headerless, raw binary file

Language/Sofware: C
Application type(s): Data Conversion
Related project(s): MSG
Description:
The FIS format is a data format provided in particular by the SATMOS Archivage Center, at Lannion (MSG data at Lannion are archived this way). The program fis2raw converts the FIS format into a raw, headerless, binary file. The number of values and their type may be retrieved while performing the conversion.

Xrit2raw: A tool to convert XRIT/SEVIRI data into a simple, headerless, raw binary file (along with libxrit, the library xrit2raw is based upon)

Language/Sofware: C
Application type(s): Data Conversion
Related project(s): MSG
Description:
xrit2raw is a simple tool designed above the libxrit library, in order to convert the XRIT format into a raw format, for people who don’t want to bother themselves with programming. The output will be a simple, headerless binary file, with 3712×3712 values of radiances for the low resolution channels, or with 11136×11136 values for the high resolution channel HRV (in native 16-bit integer, or scaled simple or double precision floating point values, depending on the options set by the user).

Remap: A reprojection tool of geolocated data between various grids

Language/Sofware: C, C++
Application type(s): Reprojection
Related project(s): CALIPSO, MODIS, MSG
Description:
Remap is a tool designed to reproject geolocated data (i.e. data with at least known latitudes, longitudes, and expectedly, time).
The tool can read various products and reprojects one (or several ones) into another, using a nearest pixel search.
This tool is SID (still in development) but may be used as is for the supported products (each version documents its supported products).
At this time, CALIPSO IIR, SEVIRI, MODIS and PARASOL are supported.

Cookie-cutter: Extraction of geostationary SEVIRI data in coincidence with heliosynchronous satellites (in SEVIRI geometry)

Language/Sofware: C, C++, Fortran
Application type(s): Extraction
Related project(s): MSG
Description:
Cookie-cutter is a LMD/Icare project whose purpose is to emulate an heliosynchronous satellite with SEVIRI acquisitions. The user defines her heliosynchronous satellite by giving some orbital and swath parameters. The tool then builds an HDF file with SEVIRI data as if they had been viewed by this fictive satellite.
