Open-Meteo integrates weather models from well-known national weather services, delivering a rapid weather API. Real-time weather forecasts are unified within a time-series database that covers both historical and future weather data. Open-Meteo is designed to analyse long time-series of weather data any place on earth.

The database, made available through the [AWS Open Data Sponsorship program](https://aws.amazon.com/opendata/open-data-sponsorship-program/).
This database is made available through the [AWS Open Data Sponsorship program](https://aws.amazon.com/opendata/open-data-sponsorship-program/).

Weather datasets are sourced from the following national weather services:
- Forecast: NOAA NCEP, DWD, ECMWF, Environment Canada, MeteoFrance, JMA, BOM, CMA, Met Norway
- Historical data: Copernicus
- Forecast: NOAA NCEP, DWD, ECMWF, Environment Canada, MeteoFrance, JMA, BOM, CMA, Met Norway, DMI, KNMI
- Historical data: Copernicus, ECMWF
- Climate data: CMIPS

This open-data distribution is managed by Open-Meteo and is not directly affiliated with national weather services such as ECMWF or NOAA NCEP.
