Operational Forecast System Purpose

Linking Forecasters, Regulators,

Model Developers,

Managers, and the Public

– By making good science

accessible to users

– By making models results

understandable

– Presenting current and past

observations

– With situational awareness

highlighting areas of

concern

– Generating Standard

Reports

Delft-FEWS Philosophy

•FEWS is a data management

system!

•Toolbox for development of

forecasting systems

•Binding dataflows + models

•Fully ‘configurable’ by user

•Real-Time

•Rapid implementation, scalable &

flexible

•High resilient & automatic /

manual & stand alone
