Caribbean Meteorological Organization

“Encouraged by GEO and the GEO Member Community, the Caribbean Meteorological Organization (CMO) Headquarters has implemented a WIS 2.0 node that is a powerful scientific tool facilitating and supporting the continuous collection, analysis, and exchange of weather and climate data taken at a local ground level to better understand microclimates and underpin early warnings in 16 Caribbean countries.”

In support of GEO’s mission and the needs of our Members, the Caribbean Meteorological Organization initiated activities to increase access to Earth observations, including establishing a new node for real-time earth-system data exchange, training workshops, and creating a multi-disciplinary community of practice, which augmented national and regional capacity in the use of geospatial information technologies for monitoring hydrometeorological events and coastal ecosystems.
