The EUMETSAT Spinning Enhanced Visible and InfraRed Imager (SEVIRI) rapid scanning service (RSS) takes an image of the northern third of the Meteosat disc every five minutes (see the EUMETSAT website for more information on SEVIRI RSS ). The original EUMETSAT dataset  contains data from 2008 to the present day from 12 channels, and for a wide geographical extent covering North Africa, Saudi Arabia, all of Europe, and Western Russia. In contrast, this dataset on Google Cloud is a small subset of the entire SEVIRI RSS dataset: This Google Cloud dataset is from a single channel: the "high resolution visible" (HRV) channel; and contains data from January 2020 to November 2021. The geographical extent of this dataset on Google Cloud is a small subset of the total SEVIRI RSS extent: This Google Cloud dataset includes data over the United Kingdom and over North Western Europe.

This dataset is slightly transformed: It does not contain the original numerical values. 

The original data is copyright EUMETSAT. EUMETSAT has given permission to redistribute this transformed data. The data was transformed by Open Climate Fix using satip.

This public dataset is hosted in Google Cloud Storage and available free to use.

### Dataset Summary

<p>The EUMETSAT Spinning Enhanced Visible and InfraRed Imager (SEVIRI) rapid scanning service (RSS) takes an image of the northern third of the Meteosat disc every five minutes (see <a href="https://www.eumetsat.int/rapid-scanning-service">the EUMETSAT website for more information on SEVIRI RSS</a>). The <a href="https://navigator.eumetsat.int/product/EO:EUM:DAT:MSG:MSG15-RSS">original EUMETSAT dataset</a> contains data from 2008 to the present day from 12 channels, and for a wide geographical extent covering North Africa, Saudi Arabia, all of Europe, and Western Russia. In contrast, this dataset on Google Cloud is a small subset of the entire SEVIRI RSS dataset: This Google Cloud dataset is from a single channel: the "high resolution visible" (HRV) channel; and contains data from January 2020 to November 2021. The geographical extent of this dataset on Google Cloud is a small subset of the total SEVIRI RSS extent: This Google Cloud dataset includes data over the United Kingdom and over North Western Europe.</p>

<p>This dataset is slightly transformed: It does not contain the original numerical values. See the "samples" section for more technical detail about the dataset.</p>

### Curation Rationale

This dataset was originally created for helping improve national PV output forecasts in combination with Numerical Weather Predictions and other data sources.

### Source Data

#### Initial Data Collection and Normalization

Data generated by <a href="https://navigator.eumetsat.int/product/EO:EUM:DAT:MSG:MSG15-RSS">EUMETSAT Rapid Scan High Rate SEVIRI Level 1.5 Image Data MSG</a> with preparation by <a href="https://openclimatefix.org/">Open Climate Fix</a>

### Other Known Limitations

This dataset only includes the High Resolution Visible channel, and covers only the area around the UK. Additionally, the RSS service is shut down for 1 month each year, and so data for most of
February 2020 and 2021 does not exist.
