The ICON model (ICON = ICOsahedral Nonhydrostatic) is the global predictive model in the model chain of the DWD. In the global ICON, the higher-resolution ICON-EU nesting area for Europe is embedded in the regional forecast. In addition, the DWD operates with the COSMO-D2 also limited to Germany and the riparian countries regional model, which serves mainly the short-term forecast. Ensemble predictions are also provided by the COSMO-D2. The numeric predictive data is provided from all models in GRIB2 format. The forecast data is provided for the individual weather elements (prediction variables) in so-called standard packages free of charge on the Open Data Server of the DWD.
