NMR aims to advance the research of nowcasting and mesoscale processes and predictability; to promote the implementation of nowcasting systems within National Meteorological Hydrological Services (NMHSs) and among their users, including the use of high-resolution numerical modelling and, data assimilation, predictability, and field experiments, while promoting the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) as key components of innovation in nowcasting systems.  

• NMR should contribute to the WMO global effort to increase awareness of nowcasting techniques and products. 

• NMR should identify, through its regional survey initiative, gaps in, and solutions for, nowcasting provision in nations and regions without operational nowcasting services. 

• NMR should facilitate the capacity development of nowcasting services through the connection of nowcasting service users with the providers of data, products and infrastructure for sustainable development of nowcasting services. 

• NMR efforts should support the development of integrated nowcasting and multi-hazard early warning systems by combining observational insights, modelling approaches, AI/ML techniques and operational practices to improve prediction capabilities.
