Meteosat-9 Imager 3 km All Channels Data (MciDAS Format)
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/126.011

Summary
This dataset contains full resolution meteosat-9 data collected during the
PREDICT project. The University of Wisconsin Space Science and Engineering
Center (SSEC) made available the full resolution METEOSAT-9 imager data to the
PREDICT investigators. NCAR/EOL collected and archived these data for access
after the campaign. During PREDICT, METEOSAT-9 (a Meteosat Second Generation
Satellite) was the operational Prime satellite, stationed at 0W. These data
are in AREA file format and consist of 3km 12-channel data (including
subsampled vis). Individual files exist for each of the original sector scans
during the period 15 August - 30 September 2010. All files are gzip'ed to
minimize size and download time. Each filename contains the UTC date/time
stamp at which the sector was broadcast. For more information about
Meteosat-9, please see:
