Met Office MSLP Charts images June 2014 to present from the Met Office's SWIFT system

UK Met Office charts analyses pertaining to Mean Surface Level Pressure and 24 hour Weather Frontal Forecasting for the UK and Western Europe for the 00 and 12UT forecast runs. The charts in this dataset, at time steps at T+00, 24, 48 and 72 hours, have been produced by the Met Office's SWIFT system using VisualWeather, following a switch from the feed provided by the Met Office's GCPS Commercial System (see related dataset). The data in this collection cover the period 30th June 2014 to present, though initially with some data gaps.

Lineage
Data, over the period June 2014 to the present, are produced by the Met Office's operational model system, processed by the Met Office's SWITFT system and produced using VisualWeather before dissemination to the BADC through the Met Office's operational dissemination system. Data are ingested daily.
