Seminar Objective

• Forum for a face to face discussion between developers/suppliers and users of ocean forecast products

• Discussions to focus on:– How useful are present day ocean predictions,

really? – Any missing forecast products? – How skilful are today's predictions? – What type of skill and accuracy is needed? – Major challenges or obstacles that need to be

resolved? – The next important step forward? – Future possibilities and needs? – Where do we want to be in 10 years time?
