An investigation into how space weather operational centre products meet end-user needs

Potential beneficiaries of the COSPAR Space Weather Roadmap can be classified in two groups – 1) operational space weather service providers, which can be viewed as direct users of the science developed through the COSPAR roadmap process; 2) end-users such as the electricity and satellites sectors whose requirements should define the metrics and parameters delivered through the products of space weather service providers, which therefore are intimately linked to the focus and evolution of the COSPAR roadmap.
