abstract:The Meteosat series of satellites are geostationary meteorological satellites operated by EUMETSAT under the Meteosat Transition Programme (MTP) and the Meteosat Second Generation (MSG) program.
But because of the lack of commitment shown by the UK over the next generation of Meteosat, we've got the Italians and the Spanish lining themselves up to take the instrument away from us.
For each sensor at the station site, 1-minute data samples shall be transmitted in CREX format via the public geostationary meteorological satellites (METEOSAT or GOES) every 5 minutes and every five minutes via the redundant transmission option.
