Hi all,

I'll make some comments on this post, even though I am maybe not the best 
qualified:

1) In the case of meteosat's (second generation) seviri instrument, we are
getting both visible bands as reflectances (unit:%) and ir bands as brightness
temperatures (units:K). They have the same properties exactly except for the 
unit.

3) I agree about your first suggestion (for storing a sequence of images for
example) but I don't understand the second one: isn't wavelength a
characteristic of the band ? Can you have several wavelength in one band ?


Best regards,
Martin
