17th International Winds Workshop
Virtual Meeting, 19-22 May 2025 One of the key meteorological parameters for weather forecasting, meteorological studies and climate applications is wind. It has therefore been a major task for the science and operational community to exploit the imagery data from satellites in order to derive Atmospheric Motion Vectors (AMVs) by tracking observed cloud and moisture […]

International Winds Working Group
Welcome to the International Winds Working Group The International Winds Working Group (IWWG) was established in 1991 and became a formal working group of the Coordination Group for Meteorological Satellites (CGMS) in 1994. IWWG was initially established to focus on cloud track winds from geostationary data. As the satellite observing system has developed, the IWWG […]
About us
About IWWG John Morgan, the first Director of EUMETSAT, was the driving force behind the creation of the group, which initially focussed on cloud track winds from geostationary satellites. As the interests of the group widened the Working Group was formally renamed from the Working Group on Cloud Motion Winds (WG-CMW) to the Working Group […]
