Introduction
Participants in the South-East European Multi-Hazard Early Warning Advisory System project (SEE-MHEWS-A Project)• 17 countries in South Eastern Europe: Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria,
Croatia, Cyprus, Greece, Hungary, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, North Macedonia, Moldova, Montenegro, Romania, Slovenia, Turkey, Ukraine.
• ECMWF, NWP Consortia, HYDRO community
Contributors:• WMO Member states outside SEE: United Kingdom, Finland, Sweden, Netherlands, Czech Republic, Russia, Austria,
Belgium, France, Italy, China, Spain, Switzerland, United States of America, Japan• International organizations and projects: ECMWF, EUMETSAT, EUMETNET, ESSL, JRC

Improved DATA exchange with WMO GDPFS center - special role of ECMWF and member countries -
• Meteorological OBS-data sharing: GTS and ADDITIONAL not-exchanged OBS data (different locations, and/or same GTS locations but more frequent sampling)
used for NWP data assimilation, and nowcasting
• Hydrological OBS-data sharing: covering the river catchment, from different sources including the river dam operators, electricity production companies
used for calibration and operational verification of hydrological models
Role of ECMWF: custodian of additional OBS-data (managing the additional data)
• HYDRO-MET-MARINE Forecasts-data sharing: All meteorological, hydrological, and marine forecasts (incl binary data) and products of high-resolution will be shared with all project participants.
Diverse region Need for a Special Data Policy!

Special Data Policy for the SEE-MHEWS-A
What is covered by SEE-MHEWS Data policy? For which use? • All additional MET OBS data managed by NMHSs
(for NWP data assimilation and nowcasting)
• Hydrological Data (for calibration and validation of operational model runs)
• Third party networks - role and responsibility of PR to reach out and make agreements at national level
• NWP and HYDRO predictions (all products, in a Binary form) = high resolution data sets

Project is resource demandingExtensive Human & Computational resources needed
Long-term commitment needed as well
• All participating countries from SEE contribute in Additional DATA exchange Res40+
• Additional contributions– ECMWF: support to member states in their quasi-operational running of the models– (WMO and ECMWF are political and technological custodians of SEE-MHEWS Data Policy)– Austria: support in nowcasting - ZAMG-INCA at European Weather Cloud– Switzerland: huge support in CPU time– Israel: ICON expertise and CPU time– Greece: COSMO expertise and CPU time– University of Belgrade: NMM-B expertise– Hungary: MET observations data management– Slovenia: ALADIN expertise and CPU time– Croatia: NWP expertise and model verification techniques– Individual experts: Dr Yuri SIMANOV, Dr Tatjana VUJNOVIC, Dr Ana VUKOVIC:
Hydrological data collection and modeling, and MET data processing– Private sector companies engaged: Deltares, and Witteveen+Bos
Hydrological modeling and quality control and HYDRO-model verification
• Donors support is not enough – joint effort with above long-term commitment from countries is crucial for success
Data management
Adding value (NWP, HydroMod, Forecasts, Alerts …)

Conclusions• Strong need for data sharing from multiple countries and different sources
in country (other public entities, private companies, academia) for the delivery of services.
• Agreement on data policy is a prerequisite but much more is needed achieve wider availability and use of the observation data:
– technical support and improvement in technical skills related to observation handling
– need to apply modern technology for data sharing access by WMO GDPFS centers
• To reach an agreement, parties need to see a clear benefit (e.g. improved meteorological & hydrological forecasts and warnings on a national level).
• Project data policy as a first step towards the „Open data“ in the region?
• Closer collaboration between WMO Members is needed in Europe and wider; it brings benefit to everyone (proved in this project).
• WMO able to provide politically neutral platform for joint work in politically complex regions

This effort is one step towards implementation of the general Data policy covering GBON
– It is a downscaled global to sub-regional requirement for meteorological and hydrological modelling –
