Global Data-processing and Forecasting System (GDPFS)

  • Pre-processing of data, e.g. retrieval, quality control, decoding, sorting of data stored in a database for use in preparing output products;
  • Preparation of analyses of the three-dimensional structure of the atmosphere with up-to-global coverage;
  • Preparation of forecast products (fields of basic and derived atmospheric parameters) with up-to-global coverage for one to 10 days ahead;
  • Preparation of specialized products such as limited area very fine-mesh short-, medium-, extended-, and long-range forecasts, tailored products for marine, aviation, environmental quality monitoring, and other purposes;
  • Monitoring of observational data quality.
  • Post-processing of NWP data using workstation and PC based systems with a view to producing tailored value added products and generation of weather and climate forecasts directly from model output.
