EUCOS Information System
The EUMETNET Composite Observing System (EUCOS) Operational Programme was established in 2002, based on recommendations resulting from the EUCOS Implementation Programme (1999-2001). It aims to establish and operate a truly European observing network under the auspices of the European Meteorological Network (EUMETNET), to deliver increased efficiency, leading to better-quality numerical and general forecasts, initially on a European scale.
The EUCOS Programme Management 2002-2006 rested with the Met Office, UK. Currently the Deutscher Wetterdienst (DWD) is responsible member of the EUCOS Programme Phase 2007-2011.
This website was established to provide all EUCOS members with necessary background information, documents and quality monitoring results. Due to this most of the topics are restricted by password login. Only general information about EUCOS and its subprogrammes provided under the topics About EUCOS and EUCOS networks are open to public. Please contact the EUCOS Team to receive login details.
