Overview  The CF Weather and Oceanographic Service  Network-based weather services:  Interactive delivery  Self-serve

Canadian Forces Weather & Oceanographic Service MISSION STATEMENT The Canadian Forces Weather & Oceanographic Service (CFWOS) provides specialized meteorological & oceanographic (METOC) information for strategic, operational and tactical advantage on a global scale. VISION To be an integral component of CF Command & Control (C2) and Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance (ISR) initiatives, providing leading edge global METOC services to decision makers and operators.

Military MetOc Support Principles  “one operation, one forecast”  Environment Canada, host nation or coalition lead nation forecasts to be used wherever possible  CF Weather Office web site provides common suite of information

Components of METOC Support for Operations / Exercises 1.Climate data for planning 2.Daily support in-theatre weather observations Weather forecasts and warnings Information on impact of environment on capabilities Advice to intelligence and targeting Other environmental information (floods, forest fires, space weather) 3. Delivery / Dissemination Remote weather briefing or on-site

CFWOS Services: Forecasting and Briefing Gulf of Aden Haiti

CFWOS Transformation Project  Joint Met Centre – CFB Gagetown, NB Met Tech teams prepare for deployment On-the-job training for briefing and forecasting Centralized briefing Centralized forecast production Development work on products, techniques and tools  MetOc Centres – Halifax, NS and Esquimalt, BC Briefing and forecasting, for fleet and regional commanders Oceanographic programme

Joint Met Center: Building Extension Completed 2013

Remote Brief Capability  Connects weather expert to users on three internal networks (unclassified and classified)  deliver interactive information via videoconference, web cams, webinars, teleconference, and chat.

Remote Briefing Capability

EC FORECASTS GLOBAL INFO GLOBAL INFO

Ongoing Intranet Service Initiatives  Google Earth MetOc layers

Download Capabilities

 MetOc NWP datasets for classified decision support systems  NITES 2 Redesign (N2R) workstation from USN, to serve fields to the Global Command and Control System map, plus other METOC applications Ongoing Intranet Service Initiatives

Under Consideration …  OGC web services  MetOcIce Data Warehouse  Connect DND users to CMC GeoMet  Ensemble Prediction System probability products  Improved Impact Matrix presentation
