Office of the Director

The National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP), located in Camp Springs, Md., is "Where America's Climate and Weather Services Begin". Virtually all the meteorological data collected over the globe arrives at NCEP, where environmental scientists analyze this information and generate a wide variety of environmental guidance information. NCEP delivers national and global weather, water, climate and space weather guidance, forecasts, warnings and analyses to a broad range of users and partners. These products and services respond to user needs to protect life and property, enhance the nation's economy, and support the nation's growing need for environmental information.

Under the direction of Dr. Louis W. Uccellini, NCEP has embarked on a Strategic Plan for 2009-2013. To meet the future needs of the ever-broadening user community and address the strategic climate-water-weather issues, NCEP is developing a "Seamless Suite of Products". The "Seamless Suite" describes a set of related products that are integrated and consistent throughout time and space, as well as across forecast applications and domains. It spans service programs and benefits from enhancements derived from the unprecedented and ongoing explosion of scientific and technological advances within the research community.
