SWENED Collaboration
| Submitter: | Gert Kruithof |
| Description: | SWENED is a network organisation in which Dutch organisations active in the field of Space Weather are united. Aim of SWENED is to exchange information and building knowledge regarding space weather, to discuss possible projects, opportunities. and innovation. The partners in SWENED also intend to cooperate where possible with the partners involved and to stimulate the cooperation with foreign space weather centers and other international networks. On September 19th at the 3rd SWENED meeting, hosted by the KNMI, a Memorandum of Understanding has been signed to emphasize the relevance of such a network organisation. This signing took place behind not-just-a-desk; it used to be the desk of Christophorus Buys Ballot. Buys Ballot founded the KNMI in 1854 with the aim to provide weather forecasts and warnings on a scientific basis. Nowadays, attention is paid to space weather as well. For information: the partners in SWENED are - KNMI - ASTRON - Joint Meteorological Group - Netherlands Space Office - TU Delft - CWI - NLR - S&T BV - TriOpSys BV - Fugro-Intersite BV - Agentschap Telecom - Kadaster |
