EUMETSAT

Headquartered in Darmstadt, Germany, EUMETSAT (European Organisation for the Exploitation of Meteorological Satellites) is an intergovernmental organization responsible for establishing, maintaining, and operating Europe's systems of operational meteorological and Earth-observation satellites. The organization develops and manages advanced geostationary and polar-orbiting satellite fleets, delivering continuous weather data, imagery, and atmospheric products to national meteorological services, scientific institutions, and environmental agencies worldwide. By providing high-precision space-based observation data for short-term weather forecasting, severe storm tracking, and long-term climate change monitoring, it underpins public safety, disaster risk reduction, and environmental decision-making on a global scale.
