Objectives and Applications
|
Meteorology, climatology, atmospheric dynamics/water and energy cycles. Meteosat 1-7 are first generation. Meteosat 8-11 are second generation and known as MSG in the development phase. Meteosat-8's original deployment at 0 degrees ended in July 2016. It is now deployed at 41.5 degrees east in support of the Indian Ocean Data Coverage (IODC) service, and from 1 July 2022 it will only be on standby at that location.
