Unique collaboration<br />

Although crucial, the instruments alone are only one<br />

piece of the puzzle. Another essential piece is how<br />

useful the data they generate are for the people who<br />

work with them.<br />

“In order to make the best of a satellite, you have<br />

to invest in infrastructure and collaborate with<br />

users and I think <strong>EUMETSAT</strong> does that really well,”<br />

McNally said.<br />

“The close relationship between <strong>EUMETSAT</strong> and the<br />

ECMWF is really quite unique and highly productive<br />

– it ensures that these new satellite systems actually<br />

benefit the people who pay for them.”<br />
