Introduction

Cmeteo stands for CORINE-meteo. Cmeteo can be seen an application suite to aggregate weather indicators from grid resolution to a regional type of division. These indicators will be aggregated to spatial themas like NUTS or agri environmental regions, or translated/adjusted for landcovers of interest like crops, etc. Translation will be accompanied by aggregation. The cmeteo package is designed to operate in several environments which may differ in both input as output datasets. All these environments need to have the basic data (both input and output) available for the CMeteo process.

Software tools needed by cmeteo

Cmeteo uses functionality which is implemented in several other software tools. The major ones are listed in the following table.

tool	remarks
REGLISTS	supplies specific lists of regions directed by input parameters.
MRS_PROCESS	contains common used functionality for processing more complex programs like cmeteo.
ADD_PROCESS_LOG	procedure to send some info to a logtable.
ADD_PROCESS_METRICS	procedure to send some data, retrieved during processing, to a logtable.

Specifications of cmeteo_grid_weather

Cmeteo_region_weather is a replacement for a variety of datasets to which cmeteo need to fill up with output. The results of cmeteo must be placed into datasets with an appropriate spacial resolution like NUTS regions or agri-environmental zones. In general, datasets for NUTS-regions are pre- or postfixed with 'nuts'; datasets for agri_environmental zones are pre- or postfixed with 'zonal'. Per thema, the structure of datasets for both resolutions are very similar.
In various schemas, datasets containing weather indicators do vary both in name of the set and in names of the attributes. Also the collection of the attributes may vary. However, all the sets contain the indicators that are essential to process cmeteo. As cmeteo only can use one structure for grid weather, some logic must be applied to transform the various sets into unified representations. This transformation is implemented as a view (standard selection) on each of the original datasets while renaming the attributes and eventually suppliyng neutral or valuable data for missing attributes. The dataset cmeteo_grid_weather is composed of the most wide combination of attributes of the various underlying datasets.

Below a summary of some sets in various schemas and the definition of cmeteo_grid_weather

						domain

dataset:	grid_weather	ecmwf_his_downscaled_data	ecmwf_eps_downscaled_data	ecmwf_downscaled_data	cmeteo_grid_weather

	- 3)	temperature_mean	temperature_mean	temperature_mean	mean_temperature	NN number(3,1)
	- 4)	temperature_dew	temperature_dew	temperature_dew	dew_temperature	NN number(3,1)
	vapour_pressure	vapour_pressure	vapour_pressure	vapour_pressure	vapour_pressure	NN number(4,2)

	calculated_radiation	radiation_global	radiation_global	radiation_global	global_radiation	NN number(6)
	snow_depth	snow_depth	snow_depth	snow_depth	snow_depth	number(6,2)

1) If an attribute for the offset of the day isn't available, the day-offset in cmeteo grid weather will be filled with a neutral value (0). This value doesn't influence the processing.
2) For sets that doesn't contain an attribute for members, a member_no: 1 will be supplied in cmeteo grid weather.
3) If an attribute for the mean or daily temperature doesn't exist, this value will be estimated as the mean value of minimum and maximum temperature of the day. Cmeteo will process this value and produces a result for it.
4) A dummy value (0) for the dew temperature wil be supplied to cmeteo grid weather for sets lacking such an attribute. Cmeteo will process this value and produces a result for it, so precautions must be taken to supply these results to the output table.

Specifications of cmeteo_region_weather

Cmeteo_region_weather is a replacement for a variety of datasets, both for themes (e.g. cgfs-his, cgms) and for resolutions (e.g. NUTS regions, agri-environmental zones), to which cmeteo need to fill up with output. In general, datasets for NUTS-regions are pre- or postfixed with 'nuts'; datasets for agri_environmental zones are pre- or postfixed with 'zonal'.
In various schemas, datasets containing weather indicators do vary both in name of the set and in names of the attributes. Also the collection of the attributes may vary. However, all the sets contain the essential indicators for which cmeteo delivers output. Per theme, the structure of datasets for both resolutions are very similar. As cmeteo only can use one structure for region weather, some logic must be applied to transform the various sets into unified representations. This transformation is implemented as a view (with the possibility to insert/update values) on each of the original datasets while renaming the attributes. As the dataset cmeteo_region_weather delivers the most wide combination of attributes of the various underlying datasets, some precautions must be taken to prevent some useless attributes being placed into the final dataset. Functionality for this is located in a technical construct (trigger) which is connected to the views.
In a dynamical way cmeteo_region_weather will be linked to the proper dataset according to the theme and the appropriate spacial resolution to deliver the results of cmeteo.
