EMO: A high-resolution multi-variable gridded meteorological data set for Europe
Description
EMO (European Meteorological Observations) is a European high-resolution, (sub-)daily, multi-variable gridded meteorological data set built on historical and real-time observations. EMO is a Copernicus Emergency Management Service product and includes at daily resolution: total precipitation, temperatures (minimum and maximum), wind speed, solar radiation and water vapour pressure. In addition, EMO also makes available 6-hourly precipitation and mean temperature. The raw observations from the ground weather stations underwent a set of quality controls, before SPHEREMAP and Yamamoto interpolation methods were applied in order to estimate for each grid cell the variable value and its affiliated uncertainty, respectively. Further information on the methods used can be found in the below scientific publication of the dataset. Currently, EMO is available in two spatial resolutions:
EMO-5 provides grids with a spatial resolution of 5kmx5km and covers the time period from 1990 to 2019.
EMO-1 provides grids with a spatial resolution of 1arcminx1arcmin (approx. 1.5km) and covers the time period from 1990-2022.
Note that EMO-5 is not supported anymore (i.e. no updates or bug-fixes are introduced) and we recommend to use EMO-1.
