Pytroll is an easy to use, modular, free and open source python framework for the processing of earth observation satellite data. The provided python packages are designed to be used both in R&D environments and in 24/7 operational production.
The focus is on atmospheric applications and imaging sensors, but as seen from the list of supported satellite sensors below the data that can be handled by Pytroll allows the usage in a wide range of earth sciences.
You can find the complete list of pytroll packages on github.com: https://github.com/pytroll. Also checkout this overview description of all packages and their mutual dependencies, maturity and known operational usage.
A non exhaustive list of supported satellites and formats is provided here: http://satpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
For a quick and easy overview of what Pytroll can possibly offer for you have a look at the Pytroll overview which was shown at the 2017 Eumetsat conference in Rome Tuesday October 3rd.
For some pytroll examples, you can have a look at the Pytroll Gallery or head directly to https://nbviewer.jupyter.org/github/pytroll/pytroll-examples

The 2018 autumn workshop will be hosted by EUMETSAT, and will take place at the Headquarters in Darmstadt, Germany from November 26 to 30.
The Pytroll Workshop is a gathering of some of the developers of Pytroll during which they address issues and new features in the project and work/code together. It is a great opportunity to learn more about Pytroll and get involved in the development. Some experience with Python is desirable to enjoy the workshop at its full potential :)
If you plan to attend, please send an message to Sauli Joro: [email protected]
Questions can be asked on the mailing list, on pytroll.slack.com or directly to Martin Raspaud: [email protected].
The Pytroll workshop for spring 2018 took place at the Norwegian Meteorologisk Institutt, in Oslo, Norway, from Monday April 23rd to Friday April 27th 2018.
