Recommendations Reformulate and reassess recommendations |
Some specific changes for Version 2.0 were identified:
EUMETSAT/ESA should be encouraged to fulfil the first recommendation in Version 1.0
Chapter 1, p.1, section 1.2 should be reviewed
Chapter 3, Figure 3-1, p. 6 has to be revised
Revision Chapter 4, which includes all requirements
Chapter 5 needs complete revision
Chapter 6, (p.25, last paragraph) raises the problem of the generation of data products, which must be addressed.
Chapter 8 should be much more specific. Cost-effectiveness has to be quantitative and figures should be given to the extent possible
Chapter 9 has to be revised and to be formulated more constructive and recommendations should be more carefully stated.
There are two standards of data levels (Annex VI, p. 51) which lead to translation problems. Rectification should be agreed.
