CliSys offers completaly integrated elaborated tools to create reports and statistics in climatology.

They will allow supplying useful information to end-users:

Daily, decadal or monthly reports
Statistics: frequency analysis, cumulated frequency distribution, contingency table, monthly averages...
Chart and wind rose for a station
Time series graphs for each parameter of each data: - a group of parameters on the same graph - a group of stations on the same output

Increase your service capability by proposing personalized products

Use of standard templates
Configuration of personalized presentations: insertion of users’ logo, layout definition, ...
Save new templates

Climate products dissemination

End-users can access to their personalized climate products and to standard products description:

Via CliSys
Via MFI’s MeteoFactory® system at which CliSys can be plugged
Via the National Met Service’s Web site

CliSys: Data in the heart of the system

A dynamic solution that you can customize in order to make yours all the steps of climatology data management

A centralized database

Relational Database Management System (RDMS):

High performance in climate data retrieval
Reliability thanks to various back-up procedures
Climate data consistency thanks to integrity constraints application

Climate data and metadata centralized in a unique and powerful database

Import of various climate data according to one acquisition method thanks to a flexible and opened system:

Real time acquisition from Automatic Weather Stations through an Automatic Message Switching System
Manual input process
Data integration from Global Telecommunication System (GTS)

Optimized storage of your data

Definition of a logical storage structure of climate data, thanks to an underlying data model:

Especially designed for climate data in order to ensure high performance for real time applications and data storage optimization.
Built-up dynamically to match local specificities and to be entirely taken into account in CliSys with no modification of applications.
Possible storage of any kind of meteorological information (standard WMO and non standard data)
Possible evolution of the data base by adding new meteorological parameters at any time.

CliSys: Data control and data processing

Monitoring and control

Visualization of received data in the data base in near real time.
Control of metadata network condition, including maps and slide shows.

Metadata management

Archiving of static information from observation network: Geographic characteristics, Sensors information, site pictures...
Addition of new values (stations, instruments...).
Modification of existing values.

Calculation of derived data

Keep or enhance existing computation methods
Use of well-tried methods, in particular by Météo-France, to calculate: - Normals according to WMO recommendations on missing data management rules. - Extreme values observed during a period on a station or a list of stations - Derived data computed using other raw data stored in the database

Data consistency control

Quality flag associated to each climate element.

Tolerance: computed automatically during acquisition process to verify validity of observed elements.
Internal consistency: executed by your experts or automatically near real time on database content to validate data or to consider it doubtful.
Time consistency: Interactive or automatic process made by your experts on database content to verify timely variation of an element.
Spatial consistency: Visualization of climate values spatially with direct link to data modification functionalities.

Modification or creation of new quality controls.

Easy and real time access to data

Automatic generation of data catalogue
CliSys data inventory consultation to verify existence of a data in the base
Use of an ergonomic graphic interface to extract data in an ASCII file
Use of Web interface to upload raw data on remote user workstation
Send of SQL queries to the database
Use of database access libraries for your own developments and research works.

CliSys: Flexibility of the system, strictness of the regulations

Distributed and flexible approach

Apply your own policies of organization or benefit from Meteo Fance International and Météo-France’s experience by choosing between a: - Centralized approach (Head Quarter) - Or a regional approach
Manage users’ rights and define their privilege (data quality control and meta data management can be operated in regions).
