RA V RBON Webinar
About the Webinar
Join us for an insightful session hosted by the WMO Regional Association V (South-West Pacific), where we shine a spotlight on the Regional Basic Observing Network (RBON) - a key initiative to strengthen regional meteorological capabilities.
Led by the RA V Working Group on Infrastructure (WG-I) and its Expert Team on Regional WIGOS Implementation (ET-WIGOS), this webinar will provide RA V Members and their technical teams with a clear understanding of RBON's purpose, structure, and strategic value. Participants will also gain insights into the tools and systems supporting its implementation, including WIS 2.0, and the upcoming RA V-19(I) draft resolution.
Whether you're directly involved in observations or supporting data systems, this session will help you connect the dots between regional collaboration and national capacity!
