WMO Monitoring Data Collection Campaign 2024

 

One Thematic Questionnaires, One Coordinated Campaign

Driving data-driven decision making across the value chain

 

 

 

PurposeThe 2024 WMO Monitoring Data Collection Campaign aims to gather up-to-date information from WMO Members to meet the organization’s monitoring and reporting needs, particularly for strategic initiatives like Early Warnings for All. The data collected will support global and national decision-making and strengthen National Meteorological and Hydrological Services (NMHSs).
Approach
  • Strategic Monitoring: Track Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and report on the WMO Strategic Plan through dashboards and the WMO Performance Assessment Report.
  • Early Warnings for All: Measure capacity gaps, progress, and inform planning for the Global State of Multi-Hazard Early Warning Systems (MHEWS) Report.
  • Country Hydromet Diagnostics (CHD): Provide data for peer advisers conducting strategic assessments of NMHSs to guide investments, such as through the SOFF initiative.
  • Member Profiles: Present essential country-specific data on capacity, performance, and compliance in key strategic areas.
  • Regional Analysis: Support constituent body decision-making, including prioritization for the upcoming Strategic Plan.
Key Uses of Collected Data
  • We have designed a consolidated set of thematic questionnaires to streamline data collection and minimize the burden on Members.
  • Structured for Ease: The questionnaires are designed to facilitate internal data collection within NMHSs or national institutions.
  • Pre-populated Data: The latest available data from the WMO Monitoring System* will be pre-filled to reduce workload.
  • Accessible Platform: Authorized PRs and designated M&E Focal Points can access the system using their WMO Community Platform credentials.
