Inventory of the climate archives stored in the centres of the InterRegionale Nord Directorate

Providing, in xml format, inventories of the climate archives of the Interregional North Directorate.

Weather-France retains its climate archives to ensure its missions of conservation of climate memory and scientific characterisation of past and future climate.

These are mainly surveys of meteorological observations gathered on metropolitan territory, ultramarine territory or former French colonies, and documentation on meteorological stations, observation techniques and measuring instruments, since the creation of the first French meteorological service in 1855.

Météo-France offers access to these funds through a website that provides several thousand inventory descriptions and offers access to some of these archives in digital form (JPEG or PDF format). The search can be done by weather station, rating, weather parameter and/or date.
