Main objective of BeRTISS project (2017-2020) is to:
- establish a pilot transnational severe weather service by exploiting Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) tropospheric products to enhance the safety, the quality of life and environmental protection in the BalkanāMediterranean region.
Sofia University is project partner in the BalkanMed real time severe weather service (BeRTISS) of the Ineterreg Balkan-Mediterranean Program. The Sofia University contribution is as follow:
- Operational provision of GNSS tropospheric products by Sofia University GNSS Analysis Centre (SUGAC),
- Numerical simulations with Weather Research and Forecasting Model (WRF),
- Delivery of GNSS water vapor product to the severe weather services and public.
