EUMETNET Mission
To help its Members to develop and share their individual and joint capabilities through cooperation programmes that enable enhanced networking, interoperability, optimisation and integration within Europe; and also to enable collective representation with European bodies in order that these capabilities can be exploited effectively.
From EUMETNET Strategy
GIE/EIG EUMETNET, Registered Number 0818.801.249 - RPM Bruxelles
EUMETNET Vision
By 2020 EUMETNET will have enabled its Members to provide a cost efficient, world-class, shared infrastructure that is significantly more interoperable and integrated with shared basic services. These improvements will enable Members to better fulfil their official duties, enhance their individual capabilities and provide a basis for Members to deliver, collectively, joint public information services at the level of the EU and the EEA.
From EUMETNET Strategy
GIE/EIG EUMETNET, Registered Number 0818.801.249 - RPM Bruxelles
EUMETNET Strategic GoalsThe following are the 3 strategic goals of EUMETNET over the next 10 years:
– Improving efficiency of EUMETNET elements of the EMI through EUMETNET programme activity and by moving towards shared services, where appropriate.
– Investing collectively through EUMETNET in science, technology and skills for the future.
– To be an essential partner for EU/EC and its bodies, whenever the implementation of EU policies require capabilities and services from the meteorological community.

EMMA
GIE/EIG EUMETNET, Registered Number 0818.801.249 - RPM Bruxelles
EUMETNET EIG active in EU funded projects• SESAR: Joint Undertaking (SJU) will bring meteorology
into the SESAR Work Programmes through Work Package (WP) 11– Meteorology will be a ‘transversal’ activity, delivering
meteorological R&D and consultancy to all relevant SESAR work packages and projects
– Discussions currently ongoing with EUMETNET led consortium
• Wezard: through a consortium led by Airbus– FP7 aeronautic Research dedicated to high impact
