OBS: Observation maps
| Observation maps give an overview of actual weather measurements ("observed measurements") over larger areas, and can serve as validation for the model simulations. Personal observations can be found in the me-T☼-u maps. |
Precipitation maps: Radar and Satellite
| Actual Precipitation maps give an overview of the precipitation (rain, snow, hail) for large areas and are updated 4 to 96 times a day (in some cases 12 times per hour). They cover limited areas, because large-scale measurements of precipitation are only available for certain regions. In mountain areas and high latitudes, the measurements tend to be imprecise or absent. |
| Satellite maps show the development and movement of clouds (see image). |
| The satSP☼T shows cloud density and also precipitation intensity and is available for some regions (see image). |
