What is the EUMETSAT Data Tailor?

 

The EUMETSAT Data Tailor software is a product customisation toolbox. It makes it possible for users to subset and aggregate our data products in space and time, filter layers, generate quicklooks, re-project onto new coordinate reference systems, and reformat into common GIS formats (netCDF, GeoTIFF, etc.). It offers a uniform way to transform both historical and near real time satellite data provided by EUMETSAT.

The Data Tailor is available in two configurations; a “stand-alone” version called Data Tailor standalone for local installation and a cloud-based version called Data Tailor Web Service (DTWS) working in tandem with the EUMETSAT Data Store.

  • The standalone Data Tailor offers a web user interface (WebUI), a command line interface and a PYTHON API, allowing users to incorporate its capability into their own processing systems.

  • The Data Tailor web-service offers a WebUI and a REST API, which enables it to be linked to the products in the EUMETSAT Data Store.

For guidance on selecting the most appropriate Data Tailor service to use, please see the selecting the appropriate data access service page.

Much of the information available on these pages regarding the standalone Data Tailor, may also be found in a self-contained PDF document accessible here.
