The VSOP-NA was set up by the WMO [World Meteorological Organization] in order to try to identify errors in the weather observations made at sea by Voluntary Observing Ships (VOS). The VOS are merchant ships, research vessels, coast guard ships, fishing boats and other ships which volunteer to make weather observations during their normal voyages and to provide this information to Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) centres. 1, record 2, English, - Voluntary%20Observing%20Ships%20Special%20Observing%20Project%20%2D%20North%20Atlantic
