Optimal Cloud Analysis - MTG - 0 degree

The Optimal Cloud Analysis (OCA) product uses an optimal estimation retrieval scheme to retrieve cloud properties (phase, height and microphysical properties) from visible, near-infrared and thermal infrared FCI channels. The optimal estimation framework aims to ensure that measurements and any prior information may be given appropriate weight in the solution depending on error characteristics whether instrumental or from modelling sources. The product can also contain information on dust and volcanic ash clouds if these are flagged in the corresponding Cloud Analysis Product. The OCA product is available in netCDF format, every 10 minutes, at 2km spatial resolution at nadir.
