DSD-SEA 2018 Current Situation of the Forecasting and Early Warning Systems in Vietnam - Tranh Huyen
1. Current Situation of the Forecasting and
Early Warning Systems in Vietnam – Limitations and the
Needs for a Centralized - Integrated Forecasting System
Presenter: Tran Thanh Huyen
On behalf of Center for Environmental Fluid Dynamics, CEFD, Vienam
2. CONTENTS
1. Hazards in Vietnam
2. Current situation of forecasting and early warning system
in Vietnam – Limitations and needs
3. Framework for an integrated forecasting and early warning
system
4. Challenges in system integration in Vietnam
6. The forecasting and early warning systems
in Vietnam at a glance
STATUS
Ca. 3000 staff, mostly observers, divided
into top-down levels as shown
in the pyramid beside
LIMITATIONS
• Observation network mostly manual; equipment partly old
• Data transmission (relatively high latency)
• Radar coverage not optimal, poor data processing
• Limited NWP capacity
• Data management fragmented
• Dissemination mostly through textual forecast bulletins

and delivery
End Users
Radar system needs upgrade
Surface network too coarse
More automated stations needed
Lack of funds for O&M cause
unreliable network
Insufficient reliability
Limited bandwidth
Too fragmented data handling
Equipment from many different suppliers
Many different databases
Lack of integrated EWS software
Enhancement of NWP and QPF needed
More trained staff needed
Complicated management system
Limited resources for O&M
Limited access to modern forecasting and
data display and management tools
Global / regional
weather models
Dispersed / fragmented
Manual fax and e-mail delivery
More timely and accurate forecasts and
warnings needed
More detailed and locally specific products
that meet specific user needs
More access to data
Diversification of end users needed
Limited paying clients
Prov. / Regional / National Centers
General:
No formalized forecast evaluation procedure
Duplication of efforts between national, regional
and provincial centres.
8. Forecasting ranges in NWP models
Weather forecasting:
•Domain selection
•Ensembles: up to 51
•Models: WRF, COSMO, NHM, HWRF
9. Forecasting ranges in NWP models
Weather forecasting:
•Domain selection
•Ensembles: up to 51
•Models: WRF, COSMO, NHM, HWRF
10. Forecasting ranges in NWP models
Weather forecasting:
•Domain selection
•Ensembles: up to 51
•Models: WRF, COSMO, NHM, HWRF
11. What do we need?
1. More station data with
higher reliability
2. Unification of database and
data handling
3. Better management in
coordination/cooperation between
different levels of Meteo-hydro
service centres in Vietnam
4. Modern forecast display
and visual tool supporting
decision making
5. Better means of issuing and
disseminating bulletins
A comprehensive,
centralized
integrated
forecasting and
early warning
system
12. Framework for an integrated forecasting and
early warning system
13. Scheme for an integrated forecasting and early warning system
14. • Central Data Hub (CDH) receives
all observation data from the
stations automatically
• Plug-in modules for standard
format.
• Data Quality Assurance (QA)
• Data synchronisation between
Regional Centres and CDH
• Provincial and Regional Centres
run their ‘own’ hydrological
models through a Client-Server
system.

16. Using Delft-FEWS as a forecasting sub-system

Models can be integrated: MIKE (11-NAM),
Wflow, SOBEK, etc.
Input data: NWP, Forecast, Satellites, Station

25. Other issues regarding system integration
• Different hard- and software solutions (inter-
operability issues), requires constant attention (ref.
Decision on System Integration)
• IT modernization requires adaptation in standard
operation procedures
• Delft-FEWS Client-Server approach needs better
explained at all levels and clear task division needed:
Central level: Delft-FEWS O&M
Decentral level: models O&M
• Reservoir modelling requires special attention
• Forecasters need to be trained on using the
integrated system
