ECMWF - Strategy 2006-2015
ECMWF, 2005The vision guiding this strategy is that European citizens will continue to receive the very best meteorological forecasting services at all ranges, particularly regarding severe weather. The superiority already achieved in global and local numerical weather prediction will be maintained and extended to other aspects of the environment. This will guarantee optimal return on the large investment made in observing systems, particularly in meteorological and environmental satellites. Benefits will accrue to all sectors of European economy and society and to the entire Earthobservation community. ...

AGM, 06. Servicios de Informatión y Predictión del Clima (SIPC) y Aplicaciones Agrometeorológicas para los Países Andinos : actas de la Reunión Téchnia
Al tratar el tema de la estrecha relación entre el clima y el desarrollo de cultivos y pastos, se destaca la variabilidad y el cambio climático como factores que pueden incidir dramáticamente en la producción agropecuaria. De ahí la importancia de contar no solo con el conocimiento de las particularidades de estos en la región, sino también de disponer de información oportuna sobre el desarrollo presente y futuro de los procesos climáticos. Para los países andinos, cuya economía en una alta proporción (en promedio en cerca del 32%) depende de la agricultura, es de gran importancia disponer de ...

PWS, 07. Supplementary guidelines on performance assessment of public weather services
The purpose of this Technical Document which is intended as a supplement to WMO/TD No. 1023, is to provide further elaboration of the concepts portrayed in WMO/TD No. 1023 and to re-enforce understanding through the provision of practical examples and models employed by various NMSs. Issues pertaining to some of the limitations of performance assessments are also discussed. Additionally, issues that require further investigation are highlighted. One broad area where further assessment focus is desirable is that of delivery of services as opposed to production of services
PWS, 06. Guide on the application of new technology and research to public weather services
In order to provide guidance to support NMSs, especially smaller Services and those in developing countries, in their service delivery activities by keeping pace with developments in technology, a Technical Document (PWS-1, WMO/TD No. 1054) was prepared in 1999 under the auspices of the WMO Technical Commission for Basic Systems (CBS) by the Public Weather Services Expert Team on Product Development and Verification and Service Evaluation. The purpose of that Technical Document was to provide a framework for the requirements of public weather services for data and products. At its twelfth sess ...

PWS, 04. Guidelines on graphical presentation of public weather services products
A major downside to the rapid developments in communications technology, however, is in the area of graphics.On the one hand, developments in computer technology enable production of a vast array of graphic material, and on the other hand, lack of formal training to produce expertise in communication graphics has resulted in a scarcity of individuals with design capabilities. These guidelines attempt to bridge this gap. They are intended to provide information and assistance on how to develop graphics to suit the unique needs and circumstances of NMSs. They identify relevant graphic design pri ...

Guidelines on performance assessment of public weather services
The purpose of this Technical Document is to provide broader guidance on performance assessment of public weather services, with something of an emphasis on forecasts and warnings. An assessment programme can be seen in the context of a quality system, where it is important to ensure that the information gathered and processed is focussed on user requirements, to be used in making decisions and taking actions to improve performance, rather than just being gathered for the sake of it. In essence, the object of the exercise is to ensure a sustainable and cost-effective system delivering quality ...
