This guide describes the specifics of the tailored Meteosat Third Generation (MTG) FCI level 1c and level 2 data disseminated by EUMETCast Africa, which form the MTG Africa data service. The bandwidth for the dissemination of products via EUMETCast Africa is very limited. Consequently, the MTG data needs to be tailored in order to provide the best fit for the needs of the African user community.
