Programmes & Achievements

Long-term forecasting

One of the OAMMO's main tasks is to make long term predictions of weather trends, based on available data for specific areas. All data is recorded and members of the agency are tasked with formulating these forecasts.

Data collection

A number of member nations supply weather data to the OAMMO that they have collected themselves, such as the A1WB supplying rainfall data on a weekly basis. This is mainly to assist with long-term forecasting.
