SEVIRI Inter-comparison and Validation Software Package
From CrewWiki
Within the CREW project a software package was developed for the inter-comparison and validation against CALIOP, CPR and AMSR-E data. The software package currently has a beta version status. We would like to invite every user to give us feedback to improve the software package. The functionality of the CREW software package includes:
- displaying cloud properties on the SEVIRI disk or other user specified areas
- multi algorithms ensemble means and standard devations
- histograms
- latitudinal means
- plotting cloud property against viewing zenith angle
- scatter plots (SEVIRI algorithm A against SEVIRI algorithm B)
- ISCCP type plots (frequency distribution in dependence of cloud optical thickness and cloud top pressure)
- scatter plots (SEVIRI algorithm against CALIOP/CPR/AMSR-E)
- cross section plots along the ATRAIN tracks
- Taylor diagrams
Please have a look at the following sections:
1. Installing the CREW software package
2. Interactive example
