COST (European Cooperation in Science and Technology) is a funding agency for research and innovation networks. Our Actions help connect research initiatives across Europe and enable scientists to grow their ideas by sharing them with their peers. This boosts their research, career and innovation.
OPENSENSE aims to improve access to continental OS observations, establish OS as a widely acknowledged method capable of providing reliable operational precipitation observations, and facilitate their use in precipitation nowcasting and operational hydrological forecasts.
