The MIDAS project studied the use of scatterometer wind data within mesoscale Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) models.
EUMETSAT operates Europe’s weather and environmental monitoring satellites and provides data to users in Europe and beyond.
AboutThe purpose of this study is to help estimate the individual impacts of current Aeolus observations and future EPS-Aeolus-like observations on NWP.
Forecasting and monitoring the weather is essential for keeping people and property safe.
The atmosphere, a dynamic mixture of gases that surrounds the planet, sustains our lives by containing the air we breathe.
EUMETSAT supports the operational monitoring of the Earth’s surface with observations provided by the Metop and Meteosat satellites.
It is important to calibrate and validate satellite instruments to ensure their optimal performance.
