International Best-Tracks Archive for Climate Stewardship (IBTrACS)


The International Best-Tracks Archive for Climate Stewardship (IBTrACS) provides tropical cyclone best-track information on a global scale. IBTrACS functions under the auspices of the World Data Center for Meteorology (WDC) and aims to make data available in a centralized location so as to further our understanding of the distribution, frequency, and intensity of tropical cyclones worldwide.
