This study aims at presenting for the first time merged GEO (geostationary elevation orbit) MSG and LEO (low elevation orbit) EPS albedo products over Europe issued from an operational production center. The assets of the merging is to complete the high latitude coverage from existing GEO products with a resolution grid adapted. Spectral norms were applied for product matching and also standard atmospheric correction. Still aerosol removal need to be timely performed.
