Note
This is an optional offering. Once deployed, users are responsible for its maintenance and updates. Feel free to ask for feedback in the #peer-support channel on EWC RocketChat.
Tip

Unlike the Data Tailor Web Services (DTWS), which can be used with EUMDAC or via https://tailor.eumetsat.int, the standalone version is generally faster and does not have limitations such as maximum concurrent jobs or workspace size.

The Data Tailor is a product customization toolbox designed to:

  • Enable users to tailor satellite data to their specific needs.
  • Offers the ability to subset and aggregate data products across space and time, filter layers, generate quick looks, reproject data onto new coordinate reference systems, and reformat data into widely used Geographic Information System (GIS) formats such as netCDF and GeoTIFF, as well as image formats like JPEG and PNG.
  • Customize data from various satellite collections, including METOP, MFG ,MSG, MTG (Meteosat Third Generation) and Sentinel-3.

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 customizations inside the Data Tailor, please go to Products and Customizations Available in the Data Tailor page.

How to provision the EUMETSAT Data Tailor Standalone

Tip

If provisioning after October of 2025, we recommend deploying based on the community hub, to benefit form upcoming features or fixes.

Deployment based on the EWC Community Hub

Checkout the corresponding Community Hub Item.

Deployment via Morpheus UI (deprecated)

Warning

This method of deployment is deprecated, and kept in documentation only as reference for EUMETSAT tenancies that relied on it prior to October of 2025.

Note

Due to design of the software, only one Linux user is able to use the software without additional settings. When a user runs the application for the first time, various configuration files are created with permissions only editable by that user.

  1. Create the Data Tailor standalone instance by clicking on + ADD button on your Morpheus Dashboard.
  2. Search for Data Tailor Standalone, select it and click next.
  3. Choose a NAME for the instance type and move to next step.
  4.  Insert at least the following inputs and click next:
    • layout: make sure it is rocky-datatailor
    • plan: select one with at least 16GB of RAM (e.g. eo2.xlarge)
    • network: private
    • security group: ssh
  5. Once done, click Complete and the provisioning will start.
  6. Look for the instance list (Provisioning → Instances) to check the status of the instance.
