OPERR

Aim: To turn a pan-European river discharge model into an operational discharge model delivering real-time and forecast data to shelf sea models. The discharge model will thereby act as a downstream service based on the currently developed GMES core information service, water. At the same time, the project’s delivery of essential new data to shelf sea models stimulates the development and improvement of a new downstream service which includes shelf sea models.
