The products are:
- Europe And North-Atlantic Geostationary Cloud Mask — MSG - 0 degree
- Europe And North-Atlantic Geostationary Cloud Top Temperature And Height — MSG - 0 degree
- Europe And North-Atlantic Geostationary Cloud Type — MSG - 0 degree
In November 2020, these products were upgraded from Version 2016 to Version 2018 of the NWC SAF GEO software package.
With the upgrade to V2018, the geographical coverage of these products was reduced to only the European continent without adjacent areas.
On 10 March, these products will be updated to extend their geographical coverage such that the East-West extension in pixel is 2295 (instead of 1530).
