Description
One of the key aspects of the mission of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), to facilitate worldwide cooperation on monitoring and predicting changes in weather, climate, water and other environmental conditions, is to promote globally coordinated observations and enable global exchange of observation data.
The WMO framework for these activities is called the WMO Integrated Global Observing System (WIGOS), as it deals with all relevant observation data, including those for Space Weather services.
An effort is currently undertaken to update the “Vision for the WMO Integrated Global Observing System in 2050” (see previous version at https://library.wmo.int/viewer/57028). This document intends to present a likely scenario of how user requirements for observational data may evolve over the next 25 years, and an ambitious, but technically and economically feasible vision for an integrated observing system that will meet them
It includes both space- and surface-based instrumentation and addresses are relevant application areas, including Space Weather.
A first draft of the document will be presented and feedback and input from the Space Weather community is requested. Apart from inputs on the technical content we also, and above all, welcome any suggestions that can help to make this document more useful for the Space Weather community.
This is an opportunity to align WMO’s vision with that of the Space Weather community, to address any related concerns, and to assure that the document can be leveraged by the community.
