  2. What is EUMETNET? EUMETNET is a network grouping 18 National Met. Serivces. Provides a framework to organise co-operative programmes. Members aim to develop their collective capabilities to serve environment management & climate monitoring. Bring to all European users the best available quality of meteorological information. Make more efficient the management of their collective resources

  3. EUMETNET Programmes • Observations (12 programmes) • Data Communications (1) • Forecasting (3) • Environment & Climate (4) • Research & Training. (2) Website:- http://www.eumetnet.eu.org/

  9. WINPROF main objectives • 2 year EUMETNET Project - started 1/7/2002 (follow CWINDE network) • Harmonise and improve the existing exchange of all wind profiler (from National Met Services and Universities) and Weather radar profiler data in Europe. • Run and further develop a network hub for data processing and quality evaluation. • Integrate new wind profiler systems.

  10. WINPROF main objectives • Establish appropriate quality control procedures. • Define general quality standards and user requirement for operational use. • Work on improved processing algorithms to improve data quality/availability. • Provide expert support to members for wind profiler installations.
