The Institute's Regional Offices carry on this discipline in their Meteorology and Climatology departments. Based on this data, stored in the OBIN database, several regular information packages and customised information packages for special farming applications are produced. The data is processed for these purposes to cover daily, weekly and monthly intervals. BAS supplies specialist agromet information under contracts with its customers, and also to certain media depending on current requirements. The tables can be used as information sheets for operating purposes.
Subsequent processing is scheduled in operating cycles .
The user may select the length of the time interval, and also the elements and parameters whose values and profiles he needs to know. Thus, output files can be arranged to meet the user's specifications. The program has been developed based on a detailed study of years-long time series from selected stations having the best homogeneity of measurement results. The program permits interactive checks reflecting all of the above aspects and, if applicable, missing data interpolation. Special Agromet Observations and Measurements Special measurements are run in a very limited extent at the moment.
