Abstract

The development of advanced diagnostic methods are discussed for evaluation of quantitative precipitation forecasts. The forecast and observed fields are resolved into objects using 'object-oriented' approach. The geometric shapes are fitted to objects for representing them in simplified or schematic fashion and objects are merged according to closeness of attributes. The object matching is performed in time domain and spatial domain which provides method for tracking individual objects over their lifetime.
