Wave model data and products
|
|
|
Products from the Met Office's global and European wave models
are available through both the WMO Global
Telecommunications System (GTS) and the Met Office's Data
and Products Distribution System (DPDS). Products available
on GTS are at a reduced resolution (2.50 by 2.50 for the global
wave model and 1.250 by 1.250 for the European wave model) for
a limited number of times. Full resolution products for a greater
number of times are available via DPDS.
DPDS users can specify how the data should be delivered (automatically
or on demand, via e-mail or FTP). The data will be delivered on
a daily basis, or can be downloaded as and when needed, and are
provided in WMO (World Meteorological Organization) GRIB (Gridded
Binary) format.

| Global wave model products are available
twice daily at 0.830 (N/S) by 1.250 (E/W) resolution. Parameters
available are significant wave height, individual (wind-sea and
swell) periods, heights and directions, for t+0, t+6, t+12, t+18,
t+24, t+30, t+36, t+42, t+48, t+60, t+72, t+84, t+96, t+108 and
t+120. The globe is divided into octants for area selection and
users can select exactly which parameters are required. |

t+24, t+30, t+36, t+42, t+48, t+60, t+72, t+84, t+96, t+108 and
