Using  downscaling techniques we are able to generate a MOS forecast for a regular grid, similar to a model grid but with the advantages of MOS. The resolution can be adjusted to the customers’ needs. Just like MOS, new elements can be introduced and more time steps made available.

The image below shows a panel with a high resolution model (Hirlam 0.1°x0.1°) on the left and gridded MOS on the right. The gridded MOS shows much more detail due to the higher topographical resolution. 

An example of the weather code on a grid. The WMO symbols for the weather type are used to show the expected weather type. This is a picture of the current situation.
