  • Description:
    This service offers access to Met Office data through a ‘self-serve’ portal via API. Users have the ability to ‘subset’ data by geographical region, time step, model run and parameter for bespoke consumption. This API data channel will ultimately become the single point of access for all Met Office Public Task weather data, replacing both Met Office DataPoint and our Wholesale Data Services. Available models: Global deterministic 10km, UK deterministic 2km (standard lat-long projection), Met Office Global Ensemble Prediction System (MOGREPS-G) 20km (global ensemble - probabilistic), MOGREPS-UK 2km (UK ensemble - probabilistic).
