The list of the geographical locations for TIGGE/TIGGE-LAM time-series archive has to be established. Here is a continuously updated list of related problems.

Your contribution to the discussion below is highly appreciated.

Locations for time-series archive:

• SYNOP stations (approximately  6000 for TIGGE (global) and 2000 for TIGGE-LAM over European domain)
• some other points of interests (wind farms, high density precipitation network etc.)

The technical issues

• reprocessing of TIGGE (global forecast) archive into time-series one
  
  • must be carefully planned and done only once all locations, parameter list etc. is known (very time demanding, thus not possible to redone arbitrarily)
• SYNOP station meta data
  • where to find the up-to-date meta data for all selected stations and how to be informed on time about all actual changes
  • how to handle potential changes of station meta data and related problems (station location change etc.)
