Data availability

The latest model cycle based on the 00 UTC analysis is normally available by 10:00 UTC, the cycle based on 12 UTC analysis is available by 22:00 UTC.

After the data transfer to the ftp server is completed a manifest file is uploaded:

z_cams_c_ecmf_yyyymmddhhmmss_vvvv.manifest

The file is uploaded to the server only after all the data files have been successfully uploaded. The file contains a list of all the GRIB and NetCDF files in the cycle and their MD5 checksums in case you would like to verify data integrity.
