  Description     : A Meteorological Ingest-Processing Package (mipp).

It's main task is to convert t low level satellite data into a format
understood by mpop (http://github.com/mraspaud/mpop).
The primary purpose is to support Geostationary satellite data
(level 1.5) but there is also support for the reading of some polar
orbiting SAR data.
.
A more sophisticated interface to satellite data objects is supported
by mpop.
.
Currently it handles data from all current Meteosat Second Generation
(MSG) satellites, Meteosat 7, GOES 11-15, MTSAT's, and GOMS, all a
retrieved via EUMETCast.
.
In addition mipp handles Synthetic Apperture Radar (SAR) data from
Terrscan-X, Cosmo-Sky Med, and Radarsat 2.
.
This package is part of the PyTroll toolset.



This package is relevant for the gis-remotesensing task.
