EUMETCast Africa New Service Transition Support
•Parallel operational phase May – July
•Support from Telespazio to transition PUMA
2015 and MESA users:
• 170 users to be transitioned under this contract
• 18 additional MESA stations were later added
• 10 PUMA 2015/MESA and 5 additional MESA
installations are still outstanding, to be
completed in the coming weeks.

The Pathfinder Projects
Project
PF I: On-Line Data Access
PF II: High Volume Data Delivery – EUMETCast Terrestrial
PF III: Web Services
PF IV: Format Toolbox
PF V: Hosted Processing
Important note:
• Pathfinders are “exploratory”, providing demonstrational services expanding the current ones
• The outcome of the arising from these Projects are a set of service requirements for future services

Pathfinder validation with African users
• Format Toolbox –Thembani Moitlhobogisupported & provided valuable feedback
• Representatives from Senegal & Mauritius are planning to support a hosted processing use case for Climate Services training
• RAIDEG has indicated an interest to support further validation in 2019
• Implementation of the new services will be incremental over next 2-years – learn more at the next Forum!
