Weather radars in Europe
More than 170 weather radars are operational in Europe. Most of them are integrated in the European network of operational weather radars established in the framework of the Eumetnet/OPERA program. A pilot radar dat hub has been developed and a European composite image is generated every 15 minutes. A new operational data center is now under construction which will ingest volume reflectivity data from single radars to produce the European composite.
