NWC SAF Workshop 2025
The Nowcasting SAF is planning a new software package dedicated to the new geostationary MTG-S Infrared Sounder instrument (IRS). This new software package will generate Satellite Humidity And Instability products (sSHAI) that will be key in Nowcasting using the IRS instrument. It will also deliver services to make the best use of MTG-IRS channels and combine its virtues with those of the MTG imager FCI.
In this Workshop you will learn about these revolutionary product and services. You will also have a taste of what will come in a few months with MTG-IRS by using in real world applications the prototype product obtained from the polar orbiting IASI instrument.
The Workshop is comprised of 4 presentations:
Part 1. X. Calbet (AEMET) - Introduction GEO-S
Part 2. N. Peinado-Galán (AEMET) - sSHAI prototype
Part 3. N. Peinado-Galán (AEMET) and X. Calbet (AEMET) - Practical cases with course attendants using SHAI on the EWC
Part 4. Miguel-Ángel Martínez (AEMET) - Other services from the GEO-S package: quickIRS, sSHAI_ES and Remapping tool
