Abstract
  • The EUMETSAT Satellite Application Facility on support to Operational Hydrology and Water Management (H-SAF) was established by the EUMETSAT Council on July 3, 2005 and started activity on September 1, 2005. The development programme duration was 5 years, ending on August 31, 2010. Soon after, the first phase of a follow-on Continuous Operations-Development Programme (CDOP-1) started with a 18-month period of duration. A following second phase (CDOP-2) has started on March 1, 2012 to provide long-term perspective (five years) to the initiative. The Italian Meteorological Service serves as Host Institute on behalf of 12 European member countries. H-SAF products include precipitation, soil moisture and snow parameters. Some products are based only on satellite observations (OBS), while other products are based on the assimilation of satellite measurements/products into numerical models (ASS). In addition to products development and generation, H-SAF includes a product validation programme and a hydrological validation programme. The Italian Civil Protection Department (DPC) coordinates the validation programme. Here, we will focus on the OBS precipitation products that are based on algorithms developed by CNR-ISAC in collaboration with the international community. While some of these products are being generated during the CDOP-2 phase, other products were first generated during the H-SAF development programme, then were under continuous development during CDOP-1 in order to improve their performance, and are now operationally generated at the Italian Centro Nazionale di Meteorologia e Climatologia Aeronautica (CNMCA), which is responsible of operational product generation and dissemination. Specifically, we will present and discuss the algorithms on which all these precipitation products are based. We will also discuss the activities that have been planned for CDOP-2, in order to enhance and improve algorithms and processing schemes and extend them to satellites that will be operational in the 2012-2017 timeframe - with special emphasis on the GEO Meteosat Third Generation (MTG) satellite which is scheduled to be launched by EUMETSAT in 2016, and on the LEO Core Observatory of the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) mission which will launched by NASA and JAXA in 2013.
