The MSG Interpretation Guide contains Power Point presentations on the EUMETSAT suggested RGB images, see the 'RGB applications' part at the link: http://eumetrain.org/IntGuide/

Real time RGB images are published on the EUMETSAT homepage http://oiswww.eumetsat.org/IPPS/html/MSG/RGB/

Several case studies with RGB images are found in the Image Library of the EUMETSAT homepage http://www.eumetsat.int/website/home/Images/ImageLibrary/

For the instructions how to calibrate the SEVIRI data into brightness temperature of reflectivity, and how to perform the solar zenith correction at the reflectivity calculation see the 'Conversion' Power Point presentation in the 'SEVIRI instrument' part of the 'MSG Interpretation Guide' at the link http://eumetrain.org/IntGuide/

The 'RGB Colour Interpretation Guide' of the EUMeTrain homepage provides examples of the typical colours of the RGB images. http://eumetrain.org/RGBguide/rgbs.html?page=1&sat=-1&rgb=-1&colour=-1&recent=false
