The HERA high-resolution pan-European hydrological reanalysis (1951-2020) dataset is the result of a joint effort between the JRC and PIK to produce a long term hydrological reanal...
Description
The European Flood Awareness System (EFAS) is part of the Copernicus Emergency Management Service (Copernicus EMS). It provides complementary, flood early warning information to its partners, the National/Regional Hydrological Services and the European Response and Coordination Centre (ERCC). EFAS holds a large-variety of regularly updated
flood forecast information ranging from gridded hydro-meteorological variables, modelled soil moisture, runoff and snow data, to a wide-range of flood-related information such as probabilistic medium-range flood forecasts (including short-range flash floods), seasonal forecasts, impact assessments and early warnings. Real-time forecast information is available to EFAS partners only. Archived EFAS information is publicly available.
Real-time data and services are accessible to EFAS partners only on the EFAS web interface and can be downloaded via an SOS and WMS-T service and from a data archive (foreseen development). Archived data is available publicly.
