ECMWF Operational Gaussian N80 surface gridded data

N80 Gaussian gridded surface operational data from 1 March 1994 to present containing the ongoing analyses and forecasts produced by the most recent ECMWF Integrated Forecasting System (IFS) model. The IFS is regularly updated as improvements are made to the model, computing facilities and observations used in data assimilation.
