Monaco IBTrACS Tropical Cyclone Tracks with WMO Wind and Pressure

Tropical cyclone track observations for Monaco, aggregating multi-agency data from the International Best Track Archive for Climate Stewardship (IBTrACS). Records include standardized meteorological variables such as WMO_WIND and WMO_PRES across various storm natures and basins.

Use Cases

• Mapping historical storm paths using LAT and LON coordinates in GEOJSON format
• Analyzing cyclone intensity trends over time using WMO_WIND and WMO_PRES fields
• Categorizing storm types based on the NATURE column for regional climate studies

Strengths

• Aggregates data from multiple meteorological agencies for inter-agency comparison
• Includes both GEOJSON and CSV formats for GIS and statistical analysis
• Provides standardized WMO-validated wind and pressure metrics

Limitations

• Geographic scope is limited to the vicinity of Monaco
• Temporal coverage start and end dates are not explicitly defined in the metadata
• Dependent on the reporting consistency of contributing agencies
