Important
This software is Sandbox and subject to ECMWF's guidelines on Software Maturity.
In this book, we will show how you can create your own version of the Probability of Fire (PoF) system.
Before you begin, please note that the workflow presented here is not intended to reproduce the exact operational system currently running at ECMWF. Instead, it provides a simplified sequence of steps designed to help you get started. The notebook can only be used with past forecasts—it will generate a tool that allows you to explore and analyse previous forecast data. That said, we believe this provides a valuable starting point: a complete, working system built entirely from data that are publicly available through the Climate Data Store (CDS) or accessible via temporary data repositories linked within this notebook.
conda env create -f environment.yml
conda activate POF_BOOK
cd handbook
rm -rf _build
jupyter-book build
jupyter-book start
Please Note: Please feel free to contact us, however ECMWF does not provide any official support for these Notebooks.
