The 2001-06 COST 719 European research program was charged with establishing interfaces between GIS (geographical information systems) and data in climatology and meteorology. Here are most of the presentations made at the final conference, in Grenoble in July 2006. After looking generally at the three fields and interactions between them, and at the spatialization of meteorological and climatological elements, they describe demonstration projects and suggest climate-related applications. Topics include the daily mapping of fire risk, winter road maintenance, and assessing population exposure to odorous pollution from a landfill over complex terrain.

This compilation of papers—presented during the COST European program entitled “The Use of GIS in Climatology and Meteorology”—focuses on the applications of geographic software and data to interpolate climate and meteorology parameters. Issues such as spatial interpolation of climate parameters, environmental problems, and national meteorology institutes’ current demo projects are detailed and supplemented by practical application illustrations.


This title gives an authoritative look at the use of Geographical Information Systems (GIS) in climatology and meterology. GIS provides a range of strategies, from traditional methods, such as those for hydromet database analysis and management, to new developing methods. As such, this book will provide a useful reference tool in this important aspect of climatology and meterology study.
