EUMETSAT Objectives
... The primary objective is to establish, maintain and exploit European systems of operational meteorological satellites.
A further objective is to contribute to the operational monitoring of the climate and the environment as well as the detection of global climatic changes.
Slide: 6 12-13 June 2006
EUMETSAT’s Mission is….
... to deliver operational satellite data and products thatsatisfy the meteorological and climate data requirements of its Member States - 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
This is carried out according to the recommendations of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO).
Slide: 9 12-13 June 2006
Data Applications
To assist the human forecaster in diagnosing and monitoring the development of hazardous weather systems...

EUMETSAT Contribution to GEOSS
• In 2005 the intergovernmental Group on Earth Observations
• (GEO) embarked to establish a Global Earth Observation System of Systems (GEOSS)
• EUMETSAT, together with WMO and NOAA, is the lead organization of the EUMETCast-based GEONETCast data dissemination system
• Readily available in Europe, Africa and America and delivering operational services to users
