  1. The Integrated System for Meteorological Surveillance, Forecast and Alert in Romania

  2. Modernizes and Integrates Meteorological Surveillance Sensors • Radar Systems (S and C band) • Lightning Detection Network • Satellite – Meteosat 7 & MSG • Automated Weather Stations • Hydro-Met Buoy Observations • Legacy sensor data • WMO data • Enhances National and Regional (local ) Forecaster’s Decision Support Systems • Integrated Real Time Sensor observation information • More diversified observation data with increased quantity • NWP Mesoscale Models - ALADIN and MM5 • Forecasting and Nowcasting tools • Upgrades Communication Infrastructure • National / Regional - VSAT • SIMINcast - Broadcast (VSAT) of data to all Regional Forecast Centers • Surface Observation collection – GSM/SMS • Subscribers – Dedicated Lines and PSTN • Improves the Dissemination of Forecasts, Warnings and Alerts to Agencies and the Public Modernize Romania’s National Resources for Meteorological and Hydrological Phenomena Detection and Forecasting
