14 October 2024 | Lithuanian Hydrometeorological Service delegation visits Norwegian Meteorological Institute

A delegation from the Lithuanian Hydrometeorological Service visited the Norwegian Meteorological Institute (MET Norway) as part of a project under the Nordic-Baltic Mobility Program for Public Administration. The visit aimed to strengthen international cooperation and facilitate the exchange of best practices between the two organisations.

During the visit, the delegation explored several key topics. One of the main areas of focus was the development of impact-based weather forecasting, aimed at improving the accuracy of warnings and raising public awareness of potential hazardous weather events.

Discussions also covered the potential for partnerships with other institutions to expand the meteorological observation network and ensure data quality, with particular attention given to integrating stations from third countries.

Another significant topic of discussion was the application of artificial intelligence and machine learning in meteorology. The delegation examined how these technologies could enhance the precision of hazardous weather predictions and improve data processing efficiency.
