What is FDSE? The NWS Weather Ready Nation Roadmap outlines concepts for the future of forecasting in the NWS Initially labeled Forecaster Decision Support Environment (FDSE), it has been renamed to: Environmental Intelligence Management Capability Among the major concepts, FDSE is to enhance… Situational Awareness Forecast Confidence Impact-based Decision Support Services (IDSS)

Task Development GSD proposed a number of tasks to SSDs and three were selected Forecast Grid Monitor Short-term Forecast Update Tool Enhanced Ensemble Capabilities for AWIPS II

Forecast Grid Monitor Purpose: Situational Awareness Allow forecasters to better understand the state of the forecast as compared to Observations Numerical Guidance Forecasts Consensus Forecasts

Forecast Grid Monitor A framework that compares combinations of GFE forecast grids: Gridded Analyses of Observations: RTMA MSAS “Obs” grids Gridded Forecasts: Official, “Fcst” Downscaled Numerical Guidance Forecasts Consensus forecasts

Forecast Grid Monitor How it works Reads GFE grids (observational and forecast) Performs some operation to compare grids for the same valid time Displays the results of that algorithm

Grid Monitor GUI

Menu Options – Add / Remove weather elements Past / Future Guidance – Sets data sets to compare Weather Element Labels – Identifies weather element Time Scale – Time in hours from now Grid Comparison Visualizations – Graphical representation of the algorithm results

Grid Comparisons Grid Comparisons are designed to be very flexible Existing algorithms can be modified New algorithms can be created Each algorithm has access to raw data: Two grids to compare The Edit Area over which to do the comparison The rectangle in which to draw/paint Algorithms can draw: Graphical Objects Text

Grid Comparisons Grid comparison algorithms can be customized for particular weather elements Users only need to add the algorithm and restart the Grid Monitor (no configuration required) Each element can use a different comparison algorithm Seeking ideas for new algorithms

Grid Monitor – Drilling Deeper Grid Monitor allows forecasters to also investigate comparison details Histogram – Plots overlaid to reveal bias Error Histogram – Histogram of error grid Scatterplot – X vs. Y plot (e.g., Fcst vs. Obs) where Difference Grid – Displays in GFE to show where differences are greatest

Grid Monitor - Histogram

Grid Monitor – Error Histogram

Grid Monitor - Scatterplot

Grid Monitor – Difference Grid

Grid Monitor - Future Work Currently gathering feedback from some field offices: Allow for display of single weather element from many sources to view model performance Display models vertically instead of weather elements Allow grid comparisons to calculate areas of predicted watch, warning, and advisory criteria Plot some text summary of grid comparison
