EUROCONTROL’s Network Manager

0 Comments
7 April 2020

The European aviation industry is highly susceptible to the impacts of weather. EUMETNET’s members are coordinating on a collaborative planning forecast for EUROCONTROL’s Network Manager to try and mitigate some of the impacts that convective weather can have on the European Network.

One of the challenges faced by air traffic controllers is that they only have awareness of air traffic in their state, there is no overarching network view of the traffic movements in Europe. The aim of Network Manager is to have a cross border view of the weather and air traffic flows and assist the air traffic organisation in the expanded domain to keep traffic moving, reducing delays and congestion.

3rd European Nowcasting Conference
24-26 April 2019
AEMET, Madrid

The third European Nowcasting Conference took place in Madrid from 24 to 26 April 2019, and was attended by around 100 participants from 22 countries (Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Republic of Korea, Russia, Singapore, Slovenia, Spain, Switzerland, United Kingdom, United States), representing National Meteorological and Hydrological Services, universities/research institutes and the commercial sector. They presented their latest findings on observations, seamless prediction, nowcasting techniques and systems, verification and user aspects. Different methods of warning procedures were presented, the potential of artificial neural networks was examined (e.g. concerning the evolution of thunderstorms), and new approaches for forecast uncertainty estimates were investigated. Besides the many excellent presentations, there was room for discussions during dedicated time slots at the end of each session and during poster sessions.

This animation shows the weather and surface marine observations over the Europe-Atlantic area for the year 2018.

Each of the 24 frames per second shows, for a given date and hour, contours of 6-hour averages of mean-sea-level pressure from ERA5 (generated using Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2019), as well as locations of all observations from buoys or ships or fixed platforms received within +/- 12 hours.

20 December 2018

The third European Nowcasting Conference (ENC) is organised under the umbrella of the EUMETNET Nowcasting Programme and will be held at the headquarters of AEMET in Madrid from 24 to 26 April 2019. The goal of the conference is to promote recent advances in the theory and practice of nowcasting in Europe and other parts of the world. The conference welcomes participants from operational, research and forecast user communities to discuss methods for improving the quality of nowcasting in Europe. The scientific program will feature keynote addresses as well as contributed presentations and offer room for discussions.
