GEO User Interface Committee meeting hosted at ECMWF
The User Interface Committee of the Group on Earth Observation held its 14th meeting at ECMWF on 2-4 March 2010.
On Tuesday, 22 June 2010, ECMWF implemented an Ensemble of Data Assimilations (EDA). The EDA is designed to provide information about the uncertainty in the analysis of atmospheric observations that provides the starting point for ECMWF's forecasts. In this implementation, the output from the EDA is used to improve the representation of initial-time uncertainty in the forecasts of the Ensemble Prediction System (EPS). The result is a more reliable estimation of forecast uncertainty.
