OSI SAF FTP servers and Thredds
The OSI SAF production is based on three subsystems. You can find:
Wind products on the wind FTP server (hosted by KNMI). You need credentials which are provided on request, after registration on OSI SAF web site.
High latitudes sea surface temperature, sea ice and radiative fluxes products on the HL FTP server (hosted by MET Norway)
Other sea surface temperature and radiative fluxes on the LML FTP server (hosted by Ifremer). You need credentials which are provided on request, after registration on OSI SAF web site. See Data tree on LML FTP server.
A HTTPS access has been implemented on Ifremer server, in case you cannot use the FTP protocol.
Thredds accesses are also available on HL server and LML server (see each product page for direct link).
It allows users to access data through OpenDAP. WMS access is also available for all gridded and geostationary products (refer to each product page).
EUMETCast
EUMETCast is a multi-service dissemination system based on standard Digital Video Broadcast (DVB) technology. It uses commercial telecommunication geostationary satellites to multi-cast files (data and products) to a wide user community. EUMETCast also delivers a range of third-party products.
EUMETView is an Online Map Service (OMS) that provides these visualisations through a customisable web user interface (WebUI) and an enhanced set of Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) standard APIs.
