In addition, OSCAR/Space provides expert assessments of the applicability of the various instruments for particular measurements. This resource can be used as a reference for studies, as a gap analysis tool, as support for planning, and for educational purposes. OSCAR assessments are primarily based on instrument design features. Other important criteria such as actual instrument operational status, calibration, actual data availability, should be kept in mind when using OSCAR outputs for a gap analysis.

Понимание потребностей пользователей в климатическом обслуживании в области сельского хозяйства
Климат может быть полезным ресурсом и в то же время может представлять опасность. Благодаря использованию климатической информации и климатического обслуживания лицами, принимающими решения, сельское хозяйство более успешно справится с задачей обеспечения продовольствием населения Земли, которое растет и все больше сосредоточивается в городах.
