46 PROGNOS: A Meteorological Service of Canada (MSC) Initiative …

the diagnostic and visualization features for enhanced monitoring and consultation
of experimental forecasts.
An iterative development approach is adopted to expand the PROGNOS system
in order to better serve research and development projects. The next major milestone
consists of adapting the data ingestion and pre-processing routines in PROGNOS to
use historical records from the PROGNOS database. From there, PROGNOS will
extend its modeling to consider additional predictands and NWP sources as well as
season and model transition schemes. Over the medium to long term, PROGNOS
will be integrating gridded post-processing methods to meet the evolving air quality
and meteorological forecast program requirements.
