OSI SAF Global Wind Products
KNMI is responsible for the wind products in the context of the EUMETSAT
Ocean and Sea Ice Satellite Application Facility (OSI SAF).
Scatterometer data from the ASCAT instrument on the Metop satellites and the
OSCAT scatterometer on the Oceansat-2 satellite are processed towards wind products
in near-real time.
The wind products are displayed on the web in near-real time. The data are used
by many users, including meteorological and oceanographic institutes.
Other KNMI activities in the OSI SAF are the support of the ASCAT calibration and
validation. Also some of the KNMI R&D work on scatterometry is done in the context
of the OSI SAF.
More information on the other OSI SAF products and on the project consortium is
available on the central OSI SAF web site.
