EUMETSAT SAF and EARS scatterometer wind services at KNMI

Scatterometer sea-surface wind observations are being successfully assimilated into Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) models, and used for nowcasting. KNMI provides near-real time scatterometer wind products based on data from several satellites. Currently global data from SeaWinds on QuikSCAT and...
