THE CONSORTIUM
THE FLARECAST TEAM
The backbone of the FLARECAST concept was the fusion of diverse expertise at the service of an optimal solar-flare prediction. Besides employing European expertise in solar physics, the consortium comprised experts in machine learning and artificial intelligence, big data handling, software engineering and programming, as well as hardware technicians and maintainers.
A distinct but equally important component of the FLARECAST project was dissemination, education and public engagement. The public outreach programme, led by an outreach professional, engaged the public in observation activities, citizen science projects or space weather forecasting using near-realtime data. Dissemination to stakeholders from industry & government relied on the expertise of the UK national forecasting agency, the MET Office.
