Hazard Assessment based on Rainfall European Nowcasts (HAREN)

Aims to develop a system for monitoring and forecasting the precipitation field at very high resolution to produce better warnings for hazards induced by precipitation at local scale all over Europe.

The project intends to use the radar mosaics generated within the EUMETNET Programme OPERA to extend the predictability of the precipitation field over Europe and the warnings will be adapted to be integrated in the METEOALARM system.
