Download a selection of the available EUMETSAT data.

Each calendar year of data within the supplied date range will be saved to a separate file in the output directory.

Parameters:

  • start_date (str) – First datetime (inclusive) to download in ‘YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM’ format

  • end_date (str) – Last datetime (inclusive) to download in ‘YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM’ format

  • output_directory (str) – Directory to which the satellite data should be saved

  • download_frequency (str) – Frequency to download data in pandas datetime format. Defaults to “15min”.

  • get_hrv (bool) – Whether to download the HRV data, otherwise only non-HRV is downloaded. Defaults to False.

  • override_date_bounds (bool) – Whether to override the date range limits

  • lon_min (float) – The west-most longitude (in degrees) of the bounding box to download. Defaults to -16.

  • lon_max (float) – The east-most longitude (in degrees) of the bounding box to download. Defaults to 10.

  • lat_min (float) – The south-most latitude (in degrees) of the bounding box to download. Defaults to 45.

  • lat_max (float) – The north-most latitude (in degrees) of the bounding box to download. Defaults to 70.

  • test_2022_set (bool) – Whether to filter data from 2022 to download the test set (every 2 weeks)

  • verify_2023_set (bool) – Whether to download verification data from 2023. Only used at project end.

Raises:

  • FileNotFoundError – If the output directory doesn’t exist.

  • ValueError – If there are issues with the date range or if output files already exist.
