Nature warns \u2014 prepare in time<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

Service Description and Applications:<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n

\u2713<\/strong> Provision of high-resolution short-term (3-hour) precipitation forecasts locally on a 100 km scale, with assimilation of mobile weather radar data into a predictive meteorological model. The website https:\/\/nowcast.meteo.noa.gr<\/strong><\/a> presents real-time weather radar data from EAA in the wider Attica region and short-term precipitation forecasts with assimilation of radar data into a predictive meteorological model. <\/p>\n\n

\u2713<\/strong> Provision of specialized forecasts for precipitation and flood impacts, mainly in urban areas, in collaboration with other scientific and private entities.<\/p>\n\n

\u2713<\/strong> Possibility, upon request from the interested party and relevant funding, of installing and operating a mobile weather radar in the area of interest (100 km scale), which will provide data to high-resolution predictive meteorological and hydrodynamic models. Provision of real-time measurement and forecast maps (up to 3 hours) for precipitation and flood risk (water depth and velocity). <\/p>\n\n

The service is intended for:<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n

\u2713<\/strong> Civil Protection Services \u2713<\/strong> Local Government Organizations (Municipalities, Regions) \u2713<\/strong> Private and public companies in the sectors of transport, construction, energy and telecommunications, and tourism.<\/p>\n\n

Methodologies and Tools Applied:<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n

\u2713<\/strong> Weather radar data \u2713<\/strong> GNSS data \u2713<\/strong> Lightning detection data \u2713<\/strong> Meteorological predictive model \u2713<\/strong> Hydrodynamic predictive model<\/p>\n\n
