MAP History Preparation Phase Experimental Phase, 1999 SOP Analysis Phase Demonstration Phase MAP D-PHASE
MAP: first WWRP RDP D-PHASE: 2nd WWRP FDP Focus --> heavy precipitation --> hydrology --> high-resolution numerical modelling Demonstration of ability to better understand, model and forecast strong precipitation events and related hydrological processes from end to end… … due to MAP

MAP D-PHASE D-PHASE: Demonstration of Probabilistic Hydrological and Atmospheric Simulation of heavy precipitation Events in the Alpine region
MAP D-PHASE October 2005: endorsement by WWRP Int. Steering Committee --> Steinacker/Dorninger, Staudinger (A), Rotach, Schär (CH), Volkert, Wulfmeyer (D), Bouttier, Richard (F), Buzzi, Frustaci, Ranzi (I), Mylne (UK) 1st MD-SC meeting, 13/14 March 2006 D-PHASE ‘office’: --> Marco Arpagaus, project coordinator --> Implementation Plan
MAP D-PHASE working groups WG-DI: Data interface --> chair: A. Montani, ARPA-SIM WG-HEU: Hydrology and End users --> co-chairs: R. Ranzi, U Brescia, C. Hegg, WSL WG-VER: verficiation --> chair: M. Dorninger, U Vienna WG-DP: Data policy --> chair M. Rotach, MeteoSwiss

Hydrological Models
Lago Maggiore Glarus Liguria Iller, Lech, Isar Emilia Romagna
‘End users’
Implementation Plan MD-SC approved the basic assumptions … all data, alerts, and feedbacks are verified / evaluated all data are visualised all alerts are visualised general rules for information flow … and their consequences common data interface (DI) common data visualisation platform (DVP) common warning and feedback platform (WFP) in general: individual implementation
International Collaboration common data interface (DI) common data visualisation platform (DVP) --> joint with COPS --> ‘Demonstration period’: June - November 2007 common warning and feedback platform (WFP) --> in collaboration with Meteorisk ETReC07
1st MAP D-PHASE meeting November Vienna local Organiser: M. Dorninger / R. Steinacker Atmospheric modeling Hydrological modeling high-resolution probabilistic simulation nowcasting Verification approaches Previous studies from ‘D-PHASE catchments’
