EO:EUM:DAT:MSG:RSS-MPE-GRIBRapid Scan Multi-sensor Precipitation Estimate (GRIB) - MSGseriesAtmospheric conditionsWeatherClimatePrecipitationAtmosphereEUMETSAT Data CentreEUMETCast-EuropeEUMETCast2013-02-18The Multi-Sensor Precipitation Estimate (MPE) product consists of the near-real-time rain rates in mm/hr for each Meteosat image in original pixel resolution. The algorithm is based on the combination of polar orbiter microwave measurements and images in the Meteosat IR channel by a so-called blending technique. The MPE is most suitable for convective precipitation. Applications and Users: Operational weather forecasting in areas with poor or no radar coverage.2010-11-26Reduced Disk Northern Hemisphere-copyrightcopyrightRSS-MPE-GRIBMSGMPEG2009-03-23-45.0 33.065.0 65.0
