The WMO responded to the UN request with the concept of the World Weather Watch (WWW), an operational system to bring the global atmosphere under improved surveillance and to provide for the rapid collection and exchange of weather data as well as for the dissemination of weather products from centralized processing centers. ... The World Weather Watch (WWW) is an integrated system which functions on three levels -- global, regional, and national. The WWW is divided into three essential elements that are closely linked and interdependent -- the Global Observing System (GOS), Global Data Processing System (GDPS), and Global Telecommunication System (GTS). 3, record 7, English, - Operational%20World%20Weather%20Watch%20Systems%20Evaluation
