Weather information that is accurate and timely plays a pivotal role in informing climate-sensitive decisions in sectors like agriculture, public health, transportation, finance and water resources management among others.

RIMES supports sectoral application of climate information by devising integrated platforms that connect weather data: both historical and observed, with forecast and advisory generation tools based on user decision context in their respective sectors.

RIMES’s collaboration with stakeholders: NMHSs, DOA, DRM agencies and most importantly communities at risk, in the member states has been pivotal for the co-development and implementation of customized forecast products, further promoting synergies with existing programs in the field.
