title	Met Office Global Deterministic
description	The Met Office's flagship Numerical Weather Prediction system, the Unified Model, underpins both weather and climate prediction and is used in several operational configurations. The Global deterministic 10km model is a global configuration of the Unified Model, delivering highly accurate short-range deterministic forecasts for up to six or seven days, and is recognised as one of the most advanced national meteorological services. Forecasts are generated four times daily: extended runs at 00:00 and 12:00 UTC, and shorter runs at 06:00 and 18:00 UTC.

This includes data assimilation analysis, projections and predictions to different times and post processed outputs derived from predictions. Data are produced using automated production typically in large volumes controlled by algorithms and data science. Prediction data can take many forms, but they always have a Geospatial Feature, Coverage or native grids on creation. They may be packaged differently for supply for customer requirement. url: http://reference.metoffice.gov.uk/DataCategories/data-types/PredictionsPostProcessed scheme:
