Description:

This proposed session topic will include joint sessions with SMOI committee on the integration of instrumentation/data (i.e. ground based measurements, remote sensing, UAS, etc) in forecasting and numerical weather prediction simulations. Ideally talks focused on benefits/pitfalls of integrating the additional data in forecasting decisions or NWP simulations or comparing forecasts/NWP simulations with the added data to forecasts/NWP simulations without the additional data.
