CM SAF provides a surface radiation climate dataset derived from Meteosat satellites covering the period 1983 – 2005 and the area seen by the Meteosat satellite located at 0° longitude and 0° latitude. This presentation given by Rebekka Posselt provides an overview on the dataset ranging from technical information, such as spatial resolution, time resolution, radiation variables covered by the dataset, accuracy of the data to some real world application examples.
