Overview of WMO Technical Guidance Documentation

(documentation status: 15 May 2006)

This document provides a list of technical guidance documentation to be used by Members. At its first session (Geneva, 25-27 April 2006), the Inter-Commission Task Team on Quality Management Framework (ICTT-QMF) decided to produce a list of the Commission documents, which are used in current operations and considered by the Commissions as technical guidance documentation to be used by Members. The representative of each Technical Commission in the ICTT-QMF agreed to provide this information to the WMO Secretariat by 15 May 2006. It is planned that the list will be reviewed annually.

The Guide was prepared in 1992 and approved by CHy in early January 1993. It provides detailed guidance for the day-to-day activities of Hydrological Services. It consists of 59 chapters covering the entire field of hydrology, with its applications to water management. It includes many of the scientific and technological advances, which have taken place since the 1970s: radar-measurement of rainfall; loggers using solid-state memories; and the application of personal computers and geographic information systems. It discusses a wide range of hydrological models including distributed models and contains information on how to select one for a specific purpose. The guide also deals with urban water-resources management, sustainable water development, irrigation and drainage and similar topics relevant to water management.
