Description
This dataset contains 15-day forecasts of the atmospheric model variables generated by the ECMWF Integrated Forecasting System (IFS) at 0.25 degree resolution. We refer to these as Near-Realtime (NRT) because new products are released twice a day after the release of the ECMWF realtime forecast data, of which this is a subset. Data may be distributed and used commercially with proper attribution .
Products are available in Earth Engine starting with the implementation of Cycle 49r1 on 2024/11/12; earlier products are not included. For general information about how to use ECMWF NRT datasets, see their user documentation . Sources files are available in the Google Cloud marketplace .
