Abstract

The processing of MSG-SEVIRI data at the Department of Geography, University of Copenhagen is presented. Spectral reflectances, vegetation index, surface and air temperature are being estimated for the African continent, and in this study compared to in situ measurements in West Africa. A potental application area is illustrated by applying the data as input to a regionalized SVAT model for the Okavango delta.
