Projects using TIGGE data

GEOWOW is a 3-year project (2011-2014) co-funded by the EU Seventh Framework Programme to improve access to Earth Observation data via GEOSS (Global Earth Observing Gystem of Systems). The GEOWOW project included implementation of improvements to the TIGGE data portal at ECMWF, including TIGL. GEOSS is coordinated by the Group on Earth Observations (GEO).

SWFDP (Severe Weather Forecast Demonstration Project) is a WMO project to strengthen capacity in National Meteorological and Hydrological Services  in developing and least developed countries to deliver improved forecasts and warnings of severe weather to save lives, livelihoods and property. Using TIGGE data, new probabilistic forecast products have been developed to support the SWFDP, with the help of funding from GEOWOW.

  • Polar prediction project (PPP) focused on improved weather and environmental prediction for polar regions
  • Subseasonal to Seasonal (S2S) project - the S2S project has established a similar dataset to TIGGE, but covering longer-range predictions
  • High-impact Weather (HI Weather) project, with a focus on five hazard areas: urban flooding, localized extreme wind, wildfire, urban heat & air quality and disruptive winter weather.
