<h5>New workflow for ECV inventory updaes</h5>
The WGClimate has recently agreed a simplified process for the update of the Inventory to reduce the workload needed for publishing an update, namely:
<ul>
<li>Agency focal points (Agency focal points are representatives from various agencies) nominated by WGClimate to provide access points for information to EUMETSAT, e.g., central hub pages such as the Copernicus Climate Data Store. </li>
<li>EUMETSAT derives the actual information and updates the Inventory. </li>
<li>EUMETSAT provides the updated information to be published for verification to the Focal Points for review </li>
<li>Agency focal points provide corrections (if any) and may fill gaps</li>
<li>EUMETSAT publishes inventory</li>
<li>Agency focal points, who are representatives from different agencies, are chosen by WGClimate. They act as access points for sharing information with EUMETSAT, like using central hub pages such as the Copernicus Climate Data Store. </li>
<li>EUMETSAT derives the real information and keeps the Inventory up to date. </li>
<li>EUMETSAT gives the updated information to the Focal Points for them to review and verify. </li>
<li>Agency focal points review the information, make corrections if needed, and fill gaps.</li>
<li>EUMETSAT publishes the updated Inventory after incorporating the feedback and corrections from the Focal Points.</li>
</ul>

<li>The main difference between the two workflows is that the new workflow is more streamlined and less burdensome on data providers. This is because the Focal Points can provide EUMETSAT with the necessary
information directly, without the need for a formal RFI. This can help to reduce the time it takes to update the ECV Inventory.</li>
</ul>
