  • View Service (WMS) for Alaro over Belgium. All the parameters of the last run of Alaro can be visualized, most of them associated with a custom style.

  • RADCLIM is a historical dataset based on weather radar observations that provides gridded accumulated precipitation composites over Belgium and surrounding regions. The data are distributed in ODIM_H5 version 2.2 format. The reported quantity is accumulated precipitation (ACRR) for 5-minute and 1-hour accumulation periods. UTC is used as the time reference, and the timestamp in the filename corresponds to the end of the accumulation period. The dataset is produced on a 700 × 700 grid with 1 km spatial resolution in the Belgian Lambert 2008 projection (Lambert Conformal Conic).

  • The ceilometer CL51 employs a pulsed diode laser LIDAR technology, where short, powerful laser pulses are sent out in a vertical or near-vertical direction. The reflection of light (backscatter) caused by clouds, precipitation or other obscuration is analysed and used to determine the cloud base height, the cloud layer height and the amount of clouds (in octas) in different layers.

  • From multiple observations during the day with UV spectrophotometers a daily value of the ozone column is calculated. This product is not publically available yet.

  • RADQPE provides high resolution radar-based quantitative precipitation estimation in realtime for Belgium and its surroundings. This product is not publically available yet.

  • The climatological network contains about 200 stations spread over the whole country. It consists of voluntary observers recruited by the RMI, professional observers of Skeyes (civil aviation) or the Air Force (military aviation) and civil servants of the state, communities or private companies. The observers measure the amount of rain fallen in the last 24 hours in the pluviometer of the RMI every morning at 8 o‘clock. In more than half of the stations the extreme air temperatures are also recorded by reading the maximum and minimum temperature in a standardized weather shelter. The observers send their observations either on a  daily or on a monthly basis to RMI. This product is not publicly available yet.

  • The data consists in tables of estimated extreme precipitation quantities for precipitation durations ranging from 10 minutes to 30 days and return periods ranging from 2 to 200 years for each Belgian municipality.
