Actions to Promote Future Improvements Actions to Inform Users Actions to Maintain and Improve Networks Request 1 Please can WIGOS and its associated task-teams & working groups take into account the new GCOS Implementation Plan and where relevant contribute.
Requirements (OSCAR) GCOS Climate Monitoring Request 2 Do you agree with this proposal/approach. Climate Services GCOS/Others Climate Science Others
Metadata (WIGOS) WIGOS Metadata Standard a significant step forward. Implementation in OSCAR shows significant benefit. But......... Request 3 Need to reinforce to Members their responsibility in updating and maintaining the metadata in OSCAR. Priority should be given to the machine-to-machine transfer. Should ‘operational’ funding of OSCAR be part of the WMO Regular Budget? Out of date or inaccurate metadata is a significant problem and can create the wrong messages. WMO Vol A has been replaced by OSCAR (Metadata). It is the Members responsibility to update this. No Machine-to-Machine transfer at present. Historical metadata of significant importance. Concerns over ongoing funding of OSCAR.
Surface Reference Network (Climate) ?? GRUAN Request 4 How can WIGOS contribute to this proposal? GUAN GSN/RBCN UAN All stations
Network Monitoring Request 5 Overlap between the work of CBS-LC-GCOS and the proposed Regional WIGOS Centres is evident. CBS-LC-GCOS continuing under the governance of CBS decisions but this needs to be addressed when RWC’s are developed.
