INNOVATION AND CUTTING-EDGE ACTIVITIES IN SPACE-BORNE PRECIPI MEASUREMENTS AND APPLICATION
BACKGROUND: The Open Consultative Platform (OCP), established at the 18t World Meteorological Congress in 2019, serves as an open, constructive and participatory framework for addressing the grand challenges of the global weather enterprise. In the spirit of collaboration, mutual respect, and
trust, the Platform enables all stakeholders to stay abreast of issues and opportunities, both institutional and technological, to motivate collaborative, win-win approaches and to nurture innovation. The cooperation paradigm incorporates active sharing of ideas and interacting with each other to move from isolated actions within a single stakeholder to coordinated initiatives developed and shared across sectoral and organizational boundaries.
Since February 2020, a series of WMO’s OCP Innovation Seminars have provided opportunities to public, private, academic, and civil sectors to share innovative practices and ideas. We expect these Seminars to contribute to further engagement among these sectors for even better
meteorological services to contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals, climate change mitigation, and disaster risk reduction.
The upcoming OCP Innovation Seminar will bring together the executive and technical leaders of Tomorrow.io, the WMO and CGMS experts for a robust discussion on the emerging needs, recent advancement and potential impacts of the space-based observing system for precipitation observation.
