How RainAtlas works

Official radars

We rebuild a radar picture every 10 minutes from open radar networks: EUMETNET OPERA (24 European countries), the German weather service DWD and NOAA in the United States.

Where the rain is going

In Germany and around it we use the DWD radar forecast. Elsewhere we measure how the rain moved between the last two images and extend that movement for one hour.

A forecast everywhere

Where no open radar exists, the answer comes from our hour-by-hour rain forecast (DWD ICON, NOAA GFS). Each page says which source it uses. →
