The Data Tailor is a product customization toolbox designed to allow users to modify satellite data according to their specific needs. It provides the capabilities to subset and aggregate data products in space and time, filter layers, generate quick looks, re-project onto new coordinate reference systems, and reformat data into common Geographic Information System (GIS) formats such as netCDF and GeoTIFF and image formats such as JPEG and PNG. The Data Tailor currently can customise various collections of METOP, MSG and Sentinel-3 satellites. There are two types of the Data Tailor. The Data Tailor Web Service (DTWS) allows users to perform customizations on products in the EUMETSAT Data Store before they are downloaded. The Data Tailor Standalone on the other hand is an application that you can install to your machine and customise products you downloaded. Comparing to Data Tailor Web Services that you can use with  EUMDAC with EUMDAC or through https://tailor.eumetsat.int, the Data Tailor standalone is generally faster and don't have the limitations like maximum concurrent jobs or workspace size. For more information on capabilities of the Data Tailor, please refer to Data Tailor Standalone Guide on User Portal and for more information about the available products and customisations inside the Data Tailor, please go to Products and Customisations Available in the Data Tailor page.

...

The Data Tailor Standalone is ready to use. Whenever you want to use the application, just activate your conda environment with $ conda activate dt_3_3 and run your customisations.
