Guidance System


We provide current forecasts, climate reanalyses and specific datasets. These are available via the web, point-to-point dissemination, data servers and broadcasting. All Environmental Modeling Center (EMC) operational forecasts uses a wide range of instruments, data and technology to collectively assess the likelihood or probability of range for possible future weather. In this section you will find the products, tools, documentation and information you need to make the best use of our data.

  • Verification

    Real-time monitoring of numerical model verification is an vital part of the NCEP's NWP development process.
  • EMC Research and Development Graphics

    The Model Analysis and Guidance (MAG) website displays graphics from NCEP's analysis and prediction systems and observational upper air RAOB data. EMC maintains numerous web pages with graphics from operational systems which supplements the MAG site
  • Nomads

    Collaborating with other organizations is a crucial component to our success. Wecollectively improve our strength by collaborating with many government agencies, universities, private sector organizations, and interim projects within the NOAA community.
  • Documentation and Support

    EMC online documentation contains information on forecast systems, numerical data, and research publications.
