SCIENCE

Since the first products are operational: the prediction of currents and system real-time data IBI zone (Iberia, Bizkaia, Ireland).

First steps for the Central European Data Service

On Friday October 14 at 10.00 at the headquarters of Novacaixagalicia Foundation in Santiago de Compostela, the Chairman of Ports, Gozález Laxe Fernando and the Director General Merchant Marine, Maria Isabel Durantez, will present "Results of MyOcean Project. New Frontiers in Operational Oceanography," the most ambitious Oceanography operation undertaken to date by the European Union.

The first results have just been implemented and are already operating the current prediction system and real time data in the IBI. To make them known, after the presentation will be the "Technical Meeting Presentation of the New European Forecasting Service Marina "in which involving the Director of Mercator Ocean, France, Pierre Bahurel, Enrique Alvarez Fanjul, State Ports, Ignacio López Cabido, Technical Assistant Muñuzuri CESGA and Vicente Perez, Director of MeteoGalicia.

First MyOcean Products 
 

In MyOcean, 61 institutions from 29 European countries among which are the Supercomputing Center of Galicia (CESGA), and State Ports MeteoGalicia, work to increase Europe's ability to predict and marine monitoring and ensuring the existence of an information service for public access to know precisely the state of the Europeans oceans and seas.
 

The current model, implemented in the CESGA, is an application of NEMO developed in collaboration with Mercator, ranging from Ireland to the Canaries with approximately 2 km resolution and will replace the ESEOAT. System forecast information includes data exchange between fixed stations and 150 buoys and tide gauges, and drifters and profilers all of the area. Information is now available on: http://myodata.puertos.es/MyO_IBI_FSVS.html

All these resources will be a central European data available to society and businesses to generate quality data specific products for end users. They have applications in knowledge marine dynamics, studies of climate change, renewable energy, route optimization vessels, port infrastructure design, engineering integrated management of marine and coastal management, pollution crisis as accidental marine oil spills, and aids to navigation, among many others.
