[Satellite TODAY 04-24-11] The European Organization for the Exploitation of Meteorological Satellites (EUMETSAT) has opened a new facility in Germany. The modern, high-tech building will host the technical infrastructure necessary to control EUMETSAT satellites in orbit, to process their data to extract the best possible information for meteorology, climate monitoring and other environmental applications. The technical systems hosted at the facility will be EUMETSAT’s main asset for innovation on the ground, infusing new science into the processing suite to extract new information from current and future satellites, including Meteosat Third Generation (MTG) and EUMETSAT Polar System Second Generation (EPS-SG).
