The INCA system adds value to the classical NWP forecast by providing (a) high-resolution analyses, (b) nowcasts, and (c) improved forecasts both within and beyond the nowcasting range.

Das Analyse- und Nowcastingsystem INCA verwendet alle verfügbaren Datenquellen – Stationsbeobachtungen, Fernerkundungsdaten, numerische Wettervorhersagemodelle und ein hochaufgelöstes Geländemodell – um eine möglichst gute Analyse des Jetztzustands der (bodennahen) Atmosphäre zu erstellen.

Status quo and outlook Models operated at ZAMG in 2020: Deterministic: AROME, AROME-RUC Probabilistic: C-LAEF Short range (deterministic and probabilistic): INCA INCA is part of the model chain, aiming at adding value to the first few hours of lead time A new system is being developed, implementation in 2020 New methodology for precipitation:

The forecasts are based on INCA, a system developed at ZAMG, which has a spatial resolution of 1x1 km and a temporal resolution of 15 minutes for precipitation and cloudiness and one hour …

Integrated Nowcasting through Comprehensive Analysis (kurz auch INCA genannt) ist ein österreichisches Wettermodell für den Wetteranalysen und -vorhersagen im Nowcastingbereich unter besonderer Berücksichtigung regionaler und …

output of the limited area model ALADIN running operationally at ZAMG is used. The NWP fields are 1-hourly, at a resolution of 9.6 km, with 60 levels in the vertical (WANG et al., 2006). The INCA analysis and nowcasting methods do not depend critically on th horizontal resolution of the NWP fields and can be based on other NWP mode

INCA ( Integrated Nowcasting through Comprehensive Analysis) is a nowcasting system developed by ZAMG and used also in Environmental Agency of the Republic of Slovenia. INCA combines different sources of data to obtain best possible analysis of the current state of the atmosphere and to derive nowcasting fields.

4 days ago · INCA is a high-resolution (1 km in horizontal), very short range forecast system, which has been developed by the Austrian Central Institute for Meteorology and Geodynamics (ZAMG) in cooperation with several Central European meteorological institutes.

Apr 11, 2025 · The aim of the INCA-CE (Integrated Nowcasting Comprehensive Analysis - Central Europe) project is to establish an international weather information system, which common platform is the INCA nowcasting system, originally developed in Austria.
