Meteosatlib - Library for accessing georeferentiated satellite images

The library allows to:

  • Read images in GRIB, SAF HDF5 and some NetCDF based formats.
  • Write images in GRIB, JPG, PNG and some NetCDF based formats.
  • Precisely correlate every pixel with its geographical coordinates
  • Extract image subareas
  • Display images
  • Reproject images

The HRIT image format is also supported when the library is built with the non-free wavelet decompression library provided by Eumetsat.
