Israel Meteorological Service, National meteorological center in Beit Dagan, Israel
The Israel Meteorological Service is a national weather center located in Beit Dagan that gathers and analyzes atmospheric and climate information. The organization operates an extensive network of automated stations throughout the country to continuously measure temperature, rainfall, and wind patterns.
The service was established in 1937 during the British Mandate period to support aviation development in the region. Since then, the organization has grown into a modern weather forecasting institution that remains critical to many sectors of public and economic life.
The organization conducts regular workshops and seminars to educate citizens about meteorology and environmental science through data-driven presentations.
Visitors can access the available data and reports from the institution online or learn about its research work. The location in Beit Dagan is accessible, and staff can answer questions about weather forecasting and climate monitoring.
The institution monitors vastly different climate zones within a compact area, from Mediterranean coastal regions to desert areas. This diversity makes the network particularly valuable for understanding weather patterns across a geographically fragmented landscape.
