Modernization of Workstation-based Nowcasting Tools
Summary
|
Modernization of forecaster workstation-based nowcasting tools is a high
priority for National Meteorological Services because the capabilities of
such tools determine and will continue to determine the appreciable levels
of quality of service of National Meteorological Services.
-
-
Forecaster workstation design should permit easy and quick incorporation
of new nowcasting tools. For this, modular design should be used as much
as possible.
-
Workstation-based nowcasting tools should be designed to
enable synergistic use of the complementary nowcasting abilities
of expert forecasters and artificial intelligence (AI).
For this, the different needs and abilities of forecasters and
AI should be initial considerations in design.
