About GeoCOF
GeoCOF is a statistical software tool for seasonal forecasting of climatic variables such as rainfall. It facilitates multiple-linear regression modelling between climatic predictors (e.g. sea surface temperatures) and the predictant, usually seasonal rainfall totals. The GeoCOF was developed by the FEWSNET/USGS activity in support of regional seasonal forecasting processes, with assistance from the SADC Climate Services Centre. The GeoCOF rationalizes the "SYSTAT process" with automation of various statistical analyses, improved functions for digitizing ocean basins, and simplified gridding of rain gauge data.
