Abstract	The generation of meteorological products from satellite imagery data is a key element of the EUMETSAT satellite programs. After the successful launch of Meteosat Second Generation (MSG) in August 2002, the satellite is currently under commissioning. After successful commissioning the operational products derived with current Meteosat imagery data will be enhanced with new products derived with the MSG Meteorological Product Extraction Facility (MSG MPEF). The improved capability of the MSG image data as compared to Meteosat enables more accurate cloud detection and classification. The higher sampling in time and space provides further improvements that will directly increase the quality of several of the existing key products like Clear Sky Radiance (CSR) and Atmospheric Motion Vector (AMV) products. The multitude of channels will enable the estimation of cloud top heights with higher accuracy than before as well as the derivation of completely new products like Total Ozone (TOZ) and Global Instability Index (GII).
