EUMHD-7805 MTG and EUMETCast

geojohnt@...
Hello All,
Er, some of us - like me - have got to get moving on the use of other 'operating systems' or rather perhaps, rather, processing software
I received this information from Ops a couple of days ago regarding an enquiry I made recently as to MTG data formats and required processing software.
Lots of useful links in the email and further 'MTG operations' links at the bottom of the webpages of the links below and yet more MTG information links on those pages.
Regards,
John.

Thank you for reaching out to us about this matter.
EUMETCast-Europe will stay the same in the foreseeable future, with only the planned evolutions on the transponder configurations on
prime and backup satellites. You can read more about it here:
https://eumetsatspace.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/DSEC/pages/1827045377/EUMETCast+Europe+Future+Transponder+Evolution+Updated
On the other hand, the data format of the MTG-FCI data will be completely different than the current MSG-SEVIRI data, in terms of file format, compression, filenames,
etc. The FCI test data can be used for assessment and gaining familiarity. More information can be found here:
https://www.eumetsat.int/mtg-test-data
As can be expected, the existing MSG processing/visualization software wouldn't handle the MTG data. However, some software packages,
like the mentioned PyTroll is known to be ready for MTG-FCI data. Some other manufacturers are also updating their software for the next generation of EUMETSAT satellites. There is a list of manufacturers available in our website:

The PyTroll software is supposed to be working also on Windows operating system. The details and the documentation can be found at https://www.eumetsat.int/software and http://pytroll.github.io/

Dear Ops,
I'm thinking ahead but with the possible launch of E 10-B tomorrow - part of the new chain, I'm wondering when MTG data becomes operational next year if EUMETCast
will remain in its currant transmission format.
Or, will there need to be a new transmission and/or data labelling format - requiring new processing/data compilation software.
You will be aware that there is a lot of talk on the MSG-1 Group at the moment about Satpy (which I know nothing about) but I think it runs on Linux.
It had been suggested by some earlier that this was the way to go for MTG data.
So will Linux be the preferred operating system and/or will Windows remain viable?
Best wishes,
John Tellick.

Hi all,
I am not proffesional programator but I succeeded build software for MTG-I compressed and decompressed data. Software run on windows platform read basic bands and create RGB compossite and GLM data read also. I am sendding screenshot regards Roman.
