| Space-based Information: | GloFAS is an interactive map which presents *forecasted meteorological data*, *predicted hydrological data*, such as stream flows categorized by their probability of occurring (hydrological Return-period), *static maps* of lakes and reservoirs included in the model and *reporting points* where additional forecast information is available. Access to real-time forecasts and forecast reruns from GloFAS is possible through a dedicated ftp service set-up by the GloFAS team upon request. Data is provided either as point time series or 2D grid series, both in netCDF format. Switch-over from version 1.0 to version 2.0 will be transparent to the user, with real-time forecasts from version 2.0 being automatically transferred from the release date, the 14th November 2018. , Requesting data for stations/points (only for river sections with upstream area larger than 1000 km2): Station ID(s), Name of station(s), Name of River(s), Name of country, Station latitude(s)/longitude(s), and Station upstream area(s) from provider (if available). Requesting data for areas: Latitudes/longitudes of the bounding box region |
