Description

Short term forecast of the critical frequency of the F2 layer of the ionosphere. The maps over Europe (latitude from 34 to 80 deg) of the foF2 parameter, for the next 24 hours, calculated with the SWIF forecast model and mapped using the real-time updated SIRMUP method with background models the SIRM (for mid latitudes) and the CCIR (for the high latitudes). The maps are made available with a latency of 20 min every hour in both ASCII and PNG formats.
